Bug#740580: O: fbset -- framebuffer device maintenance program

[Guillem Jover <guillem@debian.org>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Going on with my intention to try to match my continued dissatisfaction
with the project with my dedication to it, I've just orphaned the fbset
package.

This package has a lethargic upstream, and needs to be synced from time
to time with the latest Linux framebuffer header, accelerators, docs and
modes, from «linux/include/linux/fb.h» and «linux/Documentation/fb/»
respectively, which I've not done since linux-3.0.0-rc1, as I can't be
bothered any longer. It also produces a udeb, so people interested in
the installer might want to take a look.

The package description is:
 Program to modify settings for the framebuffer devices (/dev/fb[0-9]*
 or /dev/fb/[0-9]*) on Linux, like depth, virtual resolution, timing
 parameters etc.

Thanks,
Guillem
