Hi Ani,

working on a backport of rivafb to 2.2 (99% finished), I found that the
SetStartAddress() in riva_hw.c does not support more than 4MB video ram
which prevents high virtual y resolutions to work correctly.

I fix is trivial, if you have a look into the XF86 sources.

Patch (against 2.4.0-test4) is attached.
Successfully tested here. Please apply!

Regards,
