Subject: sis fb 2.4/2.6 boot issue
Date: Mon, 11 Aug 2003 11:17:40 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200308111117.40659.kernel@kolivas.org> (raw)
Hi
Building a kernel with the sis acceleration and fb modules built in instead of
as modules makes the machine always boot in a framebuffer mode on a sis 630
chipset. This happens even if I specify vga=normal with my bootloader. While
this isn't a major problem in itself; when X starts up, because some memory
is apparently already allocated to the FB, the colours are all a little off.
Building it as modules does not have this issue, and building vesa fb into
the kernel also does not have this problem.
