Hello,

I have a question. I use framebuffer on my 3dfx voodoo3 3000 graphic card
I use framebuffer. When I only boot kernel (not using append) console switch 
from 80x25 to 80x30 and booting penguin si pretty nice, colored and its 
background is black.
When I instruct kernel with append using this in my lilo.conf

image=/boot/vmlinuz
        label=linux
        read-only
        root=/dev/hda3
        append="video=tdfx:1024x768-24@75"

console switch to 128x48 writing

fb: Voodoo3 memory = 16384K
fb: MTRR's turned on
tdfxfb: reserving 1024 bytes for the hwcursor at d1818000
Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 128x48
fb0: 3Dfx Voodoo3 frame buffer device

but penguin is black-white and background is white. After booting I can use 
console without problem and it is color. But I like my penguin. Where is 
problem? Is it on my side or problem of driver? This happens when I try to 
use 60 Hz too.

Thanks a lot

Michal

Sorry, I remembered to write kernel version. Tested on 2.4.18, 2.4.19-pre10, 
2.4.19-rc1.

Thanks a lot

Hello I reported problem with tdfx framebuffer driver at Tue, 16 Jul 2002 
10:30:10 +0200
 
Now in 2.4.19-rc3 things become worser :(
When I switch into append="video=tdfx:1024x768-24@75" my console switch, 
penguin is still black-white, its background become black, but I CANT SEE ANY 
CHARACTERS WRITTEN ONTO CONSOLE. When I remove append and let console switch 
into 80x30, penguin is colored, but its background is white - not black and I 
can see characters written into console.

Could developer who will repair it send me patches and I'll tell him what 
happens.

Thanks a lot

Michal
