XFree86 / framebuffer

[Henry Schimmer <henry.schimmer@surfeu.de>]

Hi,

after a complete new installation from the 7-CD-set Debian3.0 I'm suffering
from problems with XFree86 and the framebuffer. KDE worked together with the
0.93-prerelease of Woody on my 712-100 as well as on my 715-64/ without
problems. After installing the offical Woody (from the CD-set) and doing an
apt-get update/dist-upgrade (stable + testing) today, XFree86 isn't able to 
find any devices / screens. 2.4.17 or 2.4.18-pa61, same problem.

715-64  : fb0 stifb 1024x768-8   (builtin, HPA208LC1024), 
          fb1 stifb 1280x1024-32 (HPA4071A_Z-graphics)
        
712-100 : fb0 stifb 1024x768-8 (buildin, HPA208LC1024)


extract from /var/log/XFree86.0.log :

(++) using vt number 7

(WW) cannot open APM
(EE) No OS PCI support available 

...

(**) FBDev(0): Using "Shadow Framebuffer"
(EE) FBDev(0): FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO: Invalid argument

Fatal Server error:
AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0


So far, so bad. - Maybe an problem with the precomiled kernel ? -> trying to
compile it on my own : make dep -> 

make[2]: Entering directory /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18-hppa/arch/parisc/kbd
make[2]: *** No rule to make target fastdep. Stop.

Wow, cool ... What did I make wrong ?


   regards
