Description Adam Jackson 2004-10-04 19:01:25 UTC
this module appears to provide support for interleaved bitplanes on Amiga
hardware.  it does not get called from any in-tree driver or DDX, and Amiga
support appears to be handled entirely by the afb driver core.
Comment 1 Adam Jackson 2004-10-13 06:47:00 UTC
according to geert uytterhoeven, ilbm should be better on amiga hardware, less
flicker on updates.  and, in fact, all amiga hardware should be able to handle ilbm.

deferring this one for now, but i'd feel better if someone stepped up to add
ilbm support to vesa and fbdev.
Comment 2 Adam Jackson 2005-10-13 10:52:28 UTC
ilbm has not been added to the 7.0 server tree as it is unused.  it still exists
in pristine condition in the monolith.
Comment 3 Adam Jackson 2006-01-26 15:19:28 UTC
partial lie, it was source added but never meaningfully built.  cvs rm'd now but
not repo-rm'd.
Comment 4 Adam Jackson 2008-02-24 18:23:49 UTC
Mass reopen.  The "REMIND" resolution is lame, I'm deleting it.  Consider yourself reminded.
Comment 5 Adam Jackson 2008-06-25 13:35:47 UTC
Long gone.
