I have stopped synching up to vger a _long_ time ago. Anybody who still thinks vger has _any_ relevance to the standard kernel is very much misguided.

Same error here. Its probably missing an include or something.

We're painfully aware of this. We do sync up with you though, so the vger tree does have what he needs along with your changes.

Linus: Please please please please please sync the official tree up with vger, I and many others can't use CVS, and it seems that it is increasingly the only way to get a functional kernel with framebuffer support.
Screw it, maybe I'll just hack a shell acct somewhere and CVS from somewhere else.

Don't take this the wrong way, but can we expect framebuffer support to work from now on?
If the primary/only difference between vger and the official tree is framebuffer support, and what's in the official tree is older or broken, it almost makes more sense to remove it than keep old or broken code.
I am by NO MEANS knowledgable in this arena, but just don't like broken kernels.

Same problem here with 123 Len

Note that saying "it's in vger, so you're wasting your time" is still completely and utterly stupid. The fact that it is in vger has absolutely no bearing, especially as there's a _lot_ of stuff in vger that will probably never make it into 2.2.

In that case, please disable CONFIG_FB completely on the Intel platform, so I won't see any complaints about it anymore. And be sure 2.2 will support less platforms than 2.0. Other platforms rely on an up-to-date drivers/video.
_I_ am used to getting other patches to make things work on my machines, but unfortunately other's aren't...

This particular patch, however, looked to be a partial undo of something that was the result of an fbcon patch in 2.1.123 being broken. I'd rather have the rest of the patch that should have been applied in 2.1.123, given my druthers.
