Dear Timur Tabi,
In message 4D7FD08C.2020406@freescale.com you wrote:
Then I'm confused, because video_hw_init() is what configures and enables the video display. So if that function succeeds (i.e. returns non-NULL), then U-Boot will put the console onto the video display. You said you wanted me to implement some mechanism where I enable the display, based on the value of the video-mode variable, without putting console on the display. However, from you just said, it appears that this mechanism already exists.
Please re-read the conversation then. Mind the context (U-Boot versus Linux). Mind what I wrote about defaults and users being able to chose the behaviour they want. And keep in mind what I wrote about enforcing desicions "in the best interest" of your users (who may happen to disagree).
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
