Here is a sample of the logs: kernel: ioctl32(debconf:1234): Unknown cmd fd(6) cmd(0004700){00} arg(0f394e70) on /dev/fb/0 It is repeated with a different pid, so obviously the graphic system crashes on startup and is respawned...Probably -boot is the best place to talk about this. Sven, Attilio, Davide, any hints?
Charles, your crash seems very similar to one reported on this m-l some times ago: have you already tried this? [1] did it work ? Ah.. this reminds me that automatic HW acceleration disabilitation for broken fbdev drivers has still to be done; Sven, any progress on this?
