Interim fix for a font problem:
- A kludge to display the correct font on some video cards.
We should be able to load multiple fonts to the VGA plane #2 and switch
between fonts by setting the font select register in the VGA sequencer.
It appears that the current code isn't functioning as expected on
some VGA cards (I have reports on Millenium and Mach64 cards). This is
either a bug in syscons or a hardware compatibility problem ;-<
This kludge will always load only one font set at a time and always use

and enable their extra features so that their additional buttons and
wheel/roller are recognized. The name of the detected model will be

- A set of new ioctl functions are added to the `psm', `mse' and
`sysmouse' drivers so that the userland program (such as the X server)
can query device information and change driver settings.
- The wheel/roller movement is handled as the `Z' axis movement by the
mouse drivers and the moused daemon. The Z axis movement may be mapped
to another axis movement or buttons.

MOUSE_PROTO_SYSMOUSE format which can encode x, y, and x axis movement

/sys/i386/isa/psm.c
- Added a set of functions to detect various mice which have additional
features (wheel and buttons) unavailable in the standard PS/2 mouse.
- Refined existing ioctl functions and added new ones. Most important
of all is MOUSE_SETLEVEL which manipulates the output level of the driver.
While the output level remains zero, the output from the `psm' driver is
in the standard PS/2 mouse format (three bytes long). When the level
is set to one, the `psm' driver will send data in the extended format.
At the level two the driver uses the format which is native to the
connected mouse is used. (Meaning that the output from the device is
passed to the caller as is, unmodified.) The `psm' driver will pass
such extended data format as is to the caller if the output level is
two, but emulates the standard format if the output level is zero.
- Added kernel configuration flags to set initial resolution
(PSM_CONFIG_RESOLUTION) and acceleration (PSM_CONFIG_ACCEL).

stated above. Sync check logic is refined and now standard.
The sync check can be turned off by the new kernel configuration flags
PSM_CONFIG_NOCHECKSYNC (0x100). PSM_EMULATION has been of little use.
- Summer clean up :-) Removed unused code and obsolete comments.
/sys/i386/isa/mse.c
- Created mseioctl() to deal with ioctl functions MOUSE_XXXX.
Most importantly, the MOUSE_SETLEVEL ioctl will change the
output format from the 5 byte format to the new, extended format
so that the caller can take advantage of Z axis movement and additional
buttons.
- Use constants defined in `mouse.h' rather than magic numbers.
/sys/i386/isa/syscons.c
- Changed scioctl() to reflect the new `console.h' and some of the new
ioctls defined in `mouse.h'. Most importantly, the MOUSE_SETLEVEL
ioctl will change the `sysmouse' output format from the MouseSystems
5 byte format to the new, extended format so that the caller can
take advantage of Z axis movement and additional buttons.
- Added support for double/triple click actions of the left button and
single click action of the right button in the virtual console. The
left button double click will select a word under the mouse pointer.
The triple click will select a line and the single click of the right
button will extend the selected region to the current position of
the mouse pointer. This will make the cut/paste support more compatible
with xterm.

CONS_HISTORY will allow the user to set the history size up to
SC_HISTORY_SIZE unconditionally (or the current height of the console
if it is larger than SC_HISTORY_SIZE). If the user requests a larger
buffer, it will be granted only if the total number of all allocated
history lines and the requested number of lines won't exceed the maximum.
- Don't free the previous history buffer and leave the history buffer
pointer holding a invalid pointer. Set the pointer to NULL first, then
free the buffer.

Doc update will follow shortly.
i was at it, do no longer insist on `PCVT_FREEBSD' being declared in
the config file, but default it to a reasonable value.
More cleanup to follow, but this part is safe for RELENG_2_2, too.
Distribute all but the most fundamental malloc types. This time I also
remembered the trick to making things static: Put "static" in front of
them.

shown to be harmful in that it results in the card not being detected
properly on warmboot due to the station address failing to be read
correctly from the NVRAM.
much like the scancode mode.
However the keys that (for no good reason) returns extension codes
etc, are translated into singlebyte codes.
Needed by libvgl. This makes life ALOT easier, also the XFree86
folks could use this.
