i have problems with framebuffer console - i compiled everything related i've seen in the kernel config, but after reboot, when the screen blinks like it was going to switch to fb, it remains blank and the system hangs up.
here is my lspci output:

the kernel: (2.6.14-r4)
in device drivers -> character devices, i turned on agpgart with via chipset support and direct rendering manager with via unichrome card support
in device drivers -> graphics support i turned on vesa vga graphics support (vesafb-tng,1024x768)
and framebuffer console support in console display driver support.(there is no via card in graphics support section)
from the livecd, the framebuffer boots OK so it seems it is a kernel config problem but i have no idea how else to configure it as with any other machine(with other chipset/video card) the similar configuration works ok
any ideas? |
