Re: Console corrupted during boot in 2.6.8, will it be included in Sarge?
Further information:
Removing radeonfb from /etc/modules makes the screen stay at 24 lines
resolution, resulting in a visible console output also for kernel 2.6.8.
Maybe the framebuffer shoud not be loaded for 2.6.x kernels?
Thanks anyway.
