Subject: Console Goes Blank When Booting 2.6.15-rc5
Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2005 22:47:54 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200512132247.54341.kwallinator@gmail.com> (raw)
As Jesper Juhl has reported, if I boot 2.6.15-rc5 with vga=normal,
everything is fine. If I boot using my preferred size (vga=794),
the console goes blank. Because I'm a touch typist, I can login and
start X and everything is copacetic, but as soon as I leave X, I'm
back to the blank screen. From X, if I flip over to a VC, the VC
display is garbled and has artifacts from the X display.
This worked fine with 2.6.14.3, and I didn't change the console,
framebuffer, or vesa options between the two kernels. Not sure how
to proceed, but I sure would like my high res console screens back.
Thanks,
Kurt
