To do this i must enable the framebuffer support on the kernel, to resolve the calls to "register_framebuffer" of the device. The problem is that by enabling the framebuffer support on the kernel (without any other fb driver inside) the kernel doesn't compiles and reports that "video_init" doesn't exists (called from main.c). I am using MPC8xx-2.2.13 kernel. With the mvista kernel 2.2.13-7 i have the same problem and another one when i try to enable "loadable module support". It can be done because of "init_modules" and other functions that cannot be referenced by "main.c". Why that? How can i enable the framebuffer support? Please help me! - MAY THE PINGUIN B WITH U - Best regards, Paolo Scaffardi AIRVENT SAM s.p.a - RIMINI (ITALY) ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
