Subject: AtyFB problem solved -> should go into a FAQ or something
Date: Wed, 13 Jan 1999 09:20:21 +0100 [thread overview]

Hi !
I solved my problems with atyfb (I hope): The cause for the blank/black
screen was not the driver, but the protection-mechanisms of the monitor
!
My 5500 has a built-in monitor, and I'm normally running vmode 13.
My "normal" boot looked like:
video=ofonly vmode=13
for atyfb I did
video=atyfb vmode=13
It looks like the vmode stuff has changed, because after writing
video=atyfb:vmode:13
it works !
Jens
