   4       - the vesafb parameter has been removed as I decided to allow the
   5         feature without any special parameter.
   6
   7       - Cyblafb does not use the vga style of panning any longer, now the
   8         "right view" register in the graphics engine IO space is used. Without
   9         that change it was impossible to use all available memory, and without
  10         access to all available memory it is impossible to ywrap.
  11
  12       - The imageblit function now uses hardware acceleration for all font
  13         widths. Hardware blitting across pixel column 2048 is broken in the
  14         cyberblade/i1 graphics core, but we work around that hardware bug.
  15
  16       - modes with vxres != xres are supported now.
  17
  18       - ywrap scrolling is supported now and the default. This is a big
  19         performance gain.
  20
  21       - default video modes use vyres > yres and vxres > xres to allow
  22         almost optimal scrolling speed for normal and rotated screens
  23
  24       - some features mainly usefull for debugging the upper layers of the
  25         framebuffer system have been added, have a look at the code
  26
  27       - fixed: Oops after unloading cyblafb when reading /proc/io*
  28
  29       - we work around some bugs of the higher framebuffer layers.
