any idea how to track it down? (check if its REALLY the kernel, since
2.6.7-k7 is working without problems WITH fbdev if i load it as a module
after installing and booting 2.6.7 from harddisk
only on the sarge-installcds i had this effect.. so it's eventually no
kernel-problem, but a sarge-installcd-kernel-package-problem?
