SubjectRe: [FBDEV UPDATE] Newer patch.

I seen the problem. Its the wrong color for the background color for the
cursor. I haven't been able to figure out why it went wrong. The specs are
not to clear on this.

Ug. That code is straight from the old driver. Will fix.

I seen this problem last night with the NVIDIA fbdev driver. I think I
know what the problem is. I will try a fix tonight.
