X-Operating-System: Linux 2.6.0 i686 X-No-archive: yes X-Uptime: 20:25:05 up 9:00, 7 users, load average: 0.00, 0.04, 0.03 User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.4i Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hello, I have got an HP omnibook 4150B. When booting with atyfb, the kernel messages look great: atyfb: 3D RAGE Mobility (PCI) [0x4c4d rev 0x64] 8M SDRAM, 29.498928 MHz XTAL, 230 MHz PLL, 50 Mhz MCLK fb0: ATY Mach64 frame buffer device on PCI But either the screen is black and I see only the cursor and Background colors (CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE disabled), but X11 starts fine. With CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE enabled it does not work at all: I get a completely broken picture that is not syncing and blinking and so on. Its completely useless. X11 will not work either :( I enabled in the kernel config: CONFIG_FB_ATY, CONFIG_FB_ATY_CT and CONFIG_FB_ATY_XL_INIT lspci -v: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility P/M AGP 2x (rev 64) (prog-if 00 [VGA]) Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company: Unknown device 000a Flags: bus master, stepping, medium devsel, latency 66, IRQ 10 Memory at fd000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M] I/O ports at e800 [size=256] Memory at fedfe000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] Expansion ROM at [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [50] AGP version 1.0 Capabilities: [5c] Power Management version 1 According to dmesg and to the omnibook's manual the card shall have 8 MB memory and not 16 MB as lspci is saying.
