a8445737e7 Add VESA support to syscons.
Kazu writes:

The VESA support code requires vm86 support. Make sure your kernel
configuration file has the following line.
        options "VM86"
If you want to statically link the VESA support code to the kernel,
add the following option to the kernel configuration file.
        options "VESA"

The vidcontrol command now accepts the following video mode names:
VESA_132x25, VESA_132x43, VESA_132x50, VESA_132x60, VESA_800x600

The VESA_800x600 mode is a raster display mode. The 80x25 text will
be displayed on the 800x600 screen. Useful for some laptop computers.

vidcontrol accepts the new `-i <info>' option, where <info> must be
either `adapter' or `mode'.  When the `-i adapter' option is given,
vidcontrol will print basic information (not much) on the video
adapter. When the `-i mode' option is specified, vidcontrol will
list video modes which are actually supported by the video adapter.

11afcc8f9f The daemon, snake and star savers should refuse to load if the current
video mode is the VESA mode, because they cannot work properly under the
VESA mode support as in the current form.

33b77e2dec Include <machine/pc/display.h>, not <i386/include/pc/display.h>. This is
not quite correct, because the Makefiles in lkm/syscons don't set up the
`machine' symlink, but other, more volatile headers in <machine> are
already used.

02f2e93b60 - The daemon might go off the screen and crashed the system if the
screen size was changed while the screen saver was inactive. Adjust
the positions of the daemon and the text and clip them accordingly
each time.

- Don't call set_border() too often. Some video chip may produce
flicker.

Pointed out by tony@dell.com

- Don't fill the entire screen with blank char every time the saver is
called.  Blank only the part of the screen where the daemon and the
text was previously printed.

ce834215a7 Incorporated lots of fixes and suggestions from Bruce and changes to
facilitate the new saver loading/unloading notification interface
in syscons.

daemon_saver:
- M_NOWAIT was wrong, since NULL returns are not handled.  Just use
  M_WAITOK.
- use `ostype' instead of hard-coded "FreeBSD". Now there is no more
  hard-coded string! (But, who will run this screen saver on other
  OS?!)
- put macros and data declarations in a consistent order.
- -DDEAMON_ONLY and -DSHOW_HOSTNAME options added in the previous commit
  are removed. Options of this kind can go stale and no one notices
  because no one uses them. DEAMON_ONLY is just removed. SHOW_HOSTNAME
  is made default.

snake_saver:
- use `ostype' and `osrelease' as in the daemon saver. The string changes
  slightly - there was a hyphen after "FreeBSD"; now there is a space.
  (It is consistent with uname -a, like the daemon server already is.)

all screen savers:
- Use the new add_scrn_saver()/remove_scrn_saver() in syscons.c
  to declare loading/unloading of a screen saver. Removed reference
  to `current_saver' and the variable `old_saver' as they are not
  necessary anymore.
- The blank, fade and green screen savers manipulate VGA registers.
  Module loading should fail for non-VGA cards.
- `scrn_blanked' is consistently treated as a number/counter rather
  than boolean.
- Some savers touch `scp->start' and `scp->end' to force entire screen
  update when stopping themselves. This is unnecessary now because
  syscons.c takes care of that.
- cleared up many unused or unnecessary #include statements.
- Removed -DLKM from Makefiles.

YOU NEED TO RECOMPILE BOTH SCREEN SAVERS AND KERNEL AS OF THIS CHANGE.

f4863d1a23 Take the OS release string from the kernel variable `osrelease'
rather than hard-code it in the message text. Optinally include
the host name in the message if SHOW_HOSTNAME is defined.

The origianl idea and sample code submitted by Angelo Turetta
