From 2cc9116c2b37c525965d76a3e6def38913259427 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kyle McMartin Date: Tue, 16 Feb 2010 16:18:37 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] vgaarb: fix "target=default" passing Commit 77c1ff3982c6b36961725dd19e872a1c07df7f3b fixed the userspace pointer dereference, but introduced another bug pointed out by Eugene Teo in RH bug #564264. Instead of comparing the point we were at in the string, we instead compared the beginning of the string to "default".
