2.5 kernel on Power3

[Denis J Barrow]

sorry guys,
the patch link on the last email was wrong & even the subject was wrong

Try
http://platan.vc.cvut.cz/ftp/pub/linux/matrox-latest

he has some 2.5 patches there
there is also another patch running around which puts the fbcon-cfb stuff
back into 2.5 available here

>I am also trying to get linuxppc64 2.5 going with a matrox card on a
regatta 630.
>The matrox fb is switched off by default in the 2.5.66 kernel from IBM &
this code unfortunately doesnt compile
>because the guy developing the matrox driver hasn't updated his code to
the new 2.5 framebuffer driver model.
>The begining of the problem is him trying to include  video/fbcon-cfb32.h
which doesn't exist in 2.5
>The problem is still there in 2.5.69
