Subject: VGA text console display problem with kernel 2.6.23-rc5/6
Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2007 03:26:37 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <46EF7DAD.3080502@soo.com> (raw)
i've 2 servers with old PCI VGA cards, one using X86_64 kernel
version 2.6.23-rc5 and one with i386 kernel version 2.6.23-rc6,
both wired into the same CRT via a KVM switch.
No matter what text screen size i set on both these machines (using
resizecons) the shell line where i type in commands is past the
bottom of the screen, invisible.
Another box connected to the same KVM displays fine, and it runs
2.6.22-rc7.
i also have a box running kernel 2.6.23-rc5 where the console
display is fine: it uses a GeForce 8500 PCI-E vidcard driving a LCD
screen.
