            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
             Owner: jsimmons@infradead.org
         Submitter: samuel.thibault@ens-lyon.org


Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: Never tested it before
Distribution: debian
Hardware Environment: 0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility P/M AGP 2x (rev 64) and 0000:01:01.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage XL (rev 27)

Hi,

When trying to use framebuffer, I first inserted atyfb (before inserting fbcon) and got a black screen. As soon as fbcon is inserted, the console shows up right, but in the middle the screen is just black.

Steps to reproduce:
- get sure fbcon is compiled as module and not inserted
- modprobe atyfb

Regards,
Samuel
