linux-stable.git/lib/fonts, branch v3.13.2 Linux kernel stable tree parisc/sti_console: prefer Linux fonts over built-in ROM fonts 2014-02-06T19:34:09+00:00 Helge Deller deller@gmx.de 2014-01-31T14:39:40+00:00 3b11ff52d571e4bac05c33c64653afdf36c5d63d commit 8a10bc9d27ceb084b0d8be621a033a475eb9fdfd upstream. The built-in ROM fonts lack many necessary ASCII characters, which is why it makes sens to prefer the Linux fonts instead if they are available. This makes consoles on STI graphics cards which are not supported by the stifb driver (e.g. Visualize FXe) looks much nicer.

lib: Move fonts from drivers/video/console/ to lib/fonts/ 2013-06-28T08:28:22+00:00 Geert Uytterhoeven geert@linux-m68k.org 2013-06-09T09:46:43+00:00 ee89bd6bc73d1d14555418a2642172448052f1dd Several drivers need font support independent of CONFIG_VT, cfr. commit 9cbce8d7e1dae0744ca4f68d62aa7de18196b6f4, "console/font: Refactor font support code selection logic"). Hence move the fonts and their support logic from drivers/video/console/ to its own library directory lib/fonts/. This also allows to limit processing of drivers/video/console/Makefile to CONFIG_VT=y again.
