I have applied the 3.3.3 accelerated fb to XF86_SVGA, it works ok but it still require "modeline" listed in XF86_Config, and thus it is not 100% using the currently configured fb mode (monitor is still resyncing while swiching between X <---> fb virtual console)
Here is my fb mode (Matrox Millenium I):
options fb0 xres=1152 yres=900 depth=16 pixclock=9091 hslen=288 vslen=3 upper=32 lower=2 left=22 right=32 fh=85 fv=90 mem=4 nopan=1 noinit=1
and the corresponding XF86_Config modeline entry:
ModeLine "1152x900@FBdev" 90.000 1152 1176 1452 1484 \ 900 902 905 935
If I don't use any modeline, it will default to "current" at 640x480, even though my fb0 is 1152x900 :(
The good thing is Sysreq Magic now works and the acceleration of course...
