>Description:
With my newport board the cursor is misplaced one character (8 pixels) to the left, making the last character typed invisible. The behaviour certainly depends on the board- and vc2-revision, as it seems to work for others. Here is my dmesg output:

As you see this is board revision 5, vc2 revision 0, causing the problem.

>How-To-Repeat:
Just boot an Indy with newport board rev.5 vc2 rev.0 and watch the cursor position.

>Fix:
Maybe checking for vc2 revision 0 should get priority over checking for board revision < 6 in newport.c. Works fine here, but should be tested with other revisions...
