 Replying to [comment:8 gang65]:
 > In original VIA (83.1.0) driver, the 0x1A (SR1A) is saved during
 VIAPreInit() (please see via_driver.c) not in "VIASave(ScrnInfoPtr pScrn)"
 function.

 VIAPreInit()

 Do you just mean saving in on EnterVT and restoring on LeaveVT? Or do you
 want to use thar register in

 ViaSeqMask(hwp, 0x1A, 0x06, 0x06);

 and

 ViaSeqMask(hwp, 0x1A, 0x0C, 0x0C);

 ? Old code used to do following:

 hwp->writeSeq(hwp, 0x1A, pVia->SavedReg.SR1A | 0x40);

 but that was probably because it didn't use any mask.
