fbfill.h is a private header whereas video_fb.h is public one. You're
the one who requested encapsulation

Works for me. Have you forgotten about 'return' ?

grep is your friend:
      framebuffer.mode_info.width = active_mode_info.x_resolution;

Again, you're the one who requested encapsulation.

I'm running the series of tests now and when I'm finished I'll commit
it. After that you're welcome to submit patches for the problems you
spot (you already talked about few)
