Re: Fw: [Bugme-new] [Bug 6106] New: EGA problem since 2.6.14

Hi,

Here is another fixup for EGA cursor resize function.

This corrects cursor resize on ega boards: registers are write-only, so
we shouldn't even try to read them. And on ega, 31/30 produces a flat
cursor. Using 31/31 is better: except with 32 pixels high fonts, it
shouldn't show up.
