> By Denis Zaitsev <zzz@cd-club.ru>
> o Simplify rules for writting secondary output drivers to matroxfb
> o Use arrays for holding Matrox output drivers, it is nicer and more
> extensible than current solution with per-CRTC bitmaps.
> o Store pointer to matroxfb specific fb information instead of
> universal fb_info* pointer for secondary head. Saves some
> typecasts.
> o Use container_of instead of simple typecast when we convert
> pointers from pointer to fb_info to pointers to matrox_fb_info.
> o Initialize Matrox G100 and G400 hardware with values read from BIOS
> instead of with failsafe settings discovered in the past.
> o matroxfb DVI updates
> o Add TV-Out support for Matrox G450/G550. Due to the hardware only
> secondary CRTC can be used as a source for TV output.
> o Make debug printouts in matroxfb G400 TV-out disabled by default
> o Remove currcon field from private fb_info in matroxfb. It was moved
> to the generic layer long ago.
> o Use sizeof(*var) instead of sizeof(struct xxx) in matroxfb
> o Return ENOTTY instead of EINVAL for unknown ioctl ops in matroxfb
> o Add support for MGA-TVO-B into matroxfb. By Mike Pieper
> o matroxfb: Do not store results of bitwise AND directly in variables

> Vojtech Pavlik <vojtech@suse.cz>:
> o Fix i8042.c to ignore fake key releases generated by AT keyboard in
> translated set 2. This fixes a problem where shift-pgup, with the
> pgup released first generated an unknown scancode warning and the
> shift remained stuck.
> o This is the last and most important step in the input core
> conversion
> o This (re)implements getkeycode/setkeycode, kbd_rate and kd_mksound
> as functions interfacing to the input core. PC-Speaker handling is
> moved to a separate file. Uinput is moved to a input/misc
> directory.
> o Shorten the keycode handling code in keyboard.c and evdev.c
> o Fix bits that have fallen out when merging input-based keyboard.c
> into 2.5 - kbd0 init, sysrq support, show_regs, show_mem,
> show_state support, correct handling of shifts across vt switches,
> console blanking, console callback. Hope that's all.
> o Always build input.o in - avoid build problems with keyboard.c
> o Add mouse model reporting into psmouse.c
> o Fix a dangling 'else' after removing ps/2 keyboard support
> o Workaround to make iforce-usb.c compile with Pat Mochel's input to
> standard lists conversion.
> o Minor endianness and debugging fixes. Most thanks to Dave Miller
