Hi there,

I need some help, I couldn't run XFree when the framebuffer is set for the kernel.

I got an error message that said :

Fatal server error :

"Cannot run in frambuffer mode. Please specify busIDs for all framebuffer devices"

I'm not using xorg.conf file (so whe I launch X, it's using getconfig), and it's working fine when the kernel is not loaded with the framebuffer.

Does some one got an idea, maybe I should write a xorg.conf file but I couldn't make one that works. when I try to generate one with X -configure, the server doesn't wana startup.
Or maybe could you just tell me wich setting I have to use in xorg.conf to specify the busID.

Thanks in advance.
