 33 Default video modes
 34 -------------------
 35 At the moment, there are two kernel command line arguments supported:
 36 
 37 mode:640x480
 38 mode:800x600
 39         or
 40 mode:1024x768
 41 
 42 Full support for startup video modes (modedb) will be integrated soon.
 43 
 44 Version 1.9.9.1
 45 ---------------
 46 * Fix memory detection for 512kB case
 47 * 800x600 mode
 48 * Fixed timings
 49 * Hint for AXP: Use -accel false -vyres -1 when changing resolution
 50 
 51 
 52 Version 1.9.4.4
 53 ---------------
 54 * Preliminary Laguna support
 55 * Overhaul color register routines.
 56 * Associated with the above, console colors are now obtained from a LUT
 57   called 'palette' instead of from the VGA registers.  This code was
 58   modeled after that in atyfb and matroxfb.
 59 * Code cleanup, add comments.
 60 * Overhaul SR07 handling.
 61 * Bug fixes.
 62 
 63 
 64 Version 1.9.4.3
 65 ---------------
 66 * Correctly set default startup video mode.
 67 * Do not override ram size setting.  Define
 68   CLGEN_USE_HARDCODED_RAM_SETTINGS if you _do_ want to override the RAM
 69   setting.
 70 * Compile fixes related to new 2.3.x IORESOURCE_IO[PORT] symbol changes.
 71 * Use new 2.3.x resource allocation.
 72 * Some code cleanup.
 73 
 74 
 75 Version 1.9.4.2
 76 ---------------
 77 * Casting fixes.
 78 * Assertions no longer cause an oops on purpose.
 79 * Bug fixes.
 80 
 81 
 82 Version 1.9.4.1
 83 ---------------
 84 * Add compatibility support.  Now requires a 2.1.x, 2.2.x or 2.3.x kernel.
 85 
 86 
 87 Version 1.9.4
 88 -------------
 89 * Several enhancements, smaller memory footprint, a few bugfixes.
 90 * Requires kernel 2.3.14-pre1 or later.
 91 
 92 
 93 Version 1.9.3
 94 -------------
 95 * Bundled with kernel 2.3.14-pre1 or later.
