Re: [9fans] nvidia driver fix

i'm not disputing there is a problem with the addition of the lcd
code, but your fix is confusing. unless you are using a flat panel,
the path through the orig code and your fixed code should be the same,
with the exception that the orig code reads crt registers 0x21, 0x53
and 0x54. there's only the xfree86 code to go on here, and that doesn't
read those registers and only sets them if it's a flat panel; that
might be the right answer.

in what way didn't it work?
