[Bug 396304] Re: KMS problems on macbook2.1, both in VT(minor) and Xorg(freeze)

 

-- UPDATE

With kms enabled, no bootsplash, VT only:
Resolution is changed. It looks great, and is very fast, but parts of the very bottom of the screen (1-2px) is filled with garbage.


--- THIS IS WRONG
--This garbage is there even if the text on the screen hasn't reached the bottom yet. Is there after a "reset" command.

The garbage is a replication of whatever is on the last line of the
VT... Doing a sleep 10, will result in a normal cursor on the bottom
left, and weird copies of the cursor about every 10 chars to the right.

If there is more data on the bottom line(for instance, the normal
prompt, or a file list) there will be more garbled date to the right of
the cursor.

A reset fixes the issue.

Here is a dmesg from my testing of that
