Subject: edd breaking vesafb
Date: Thu, 18 Sep 2008 17:17:15 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1221751035.26693.8.camel@plop> (raw)

Hello

I got a report of vesafb no longer working since edd is used on a
machine (Shuttle FN41SP).
It's a BIOS bug that was easily workarounded by calling set_video before
query_edd.
Does someone see some issue in doing that ?
