update to the driver model").

include/video/fbcon.h was moved to drivers/video/console/fbcon.h in ... 2002.

Anyone who cares to resurrect it? If not, we should just remove it.

 I'll have a look, thanks for the heads-up.  Not a card I usually use -- I 
wonder if I've got a patch somewhere that I forgot to post while rewriting 
TURBOchannel support though.

 Probably.  I have the right piece of hardware (thanks, Thiemo), but 
little time these days.  I mean to have a look at it, but I have no 
timeline, sorry.  I started converting it at one point, but I recall I 
stumbled on porting the hardware cursor support that turned out to be 
unsupported with the new API or something.

I've just noticed drivers/video/pmag-aa-fb.c is the single remaining frame
buffer device driver that still uses the old 2.4 API (all others have been
converted or removed). So it doesn't work anymore.

Does anyone still care about it?

With kind regards,
