Line 0 and 1 were both written to line 0 (on the display) and all subsequent
lines had an offset of -1. The result was that the last line on the display
was never overwritten by writes to /dev/fbN.

As Bernie agreed but didn't send me a pull request, I applied this one.
Though the formatting was screwed up and I had to fix it...


Best regards,

Sorry, must have happened because I've used "Edit as new" in Thunderbird
to resend the patch while just adding the RESEND to the subject.

Good to know.

Thanks,
