Summary     : Xorg X11 qxl video driver
Description :
X.Org X11 qxl video driver.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

- Don't access the qxl device when our vt is not focussed, this fixes Xorg crashing when switching to a text vc
- Add support for using resolutions > 1024x768 without needing an xorg.conf
- Fix the driver not working on qxl devices with a framebuffer of 8MB (caused by previous change)
- Restore textmode font when switching back to a textmode virtual console
- This fixes the fact that the previous driver didn't work at all due to ABI compatibility issues. (and rebuild for gcc bug 634757)
