Funny enough: after I started my system today, I didn't get the old
message, but the "fixed font" message. So I recapitulated, what really
happened yesterday:
- installed new 2.2.7 with Mac-on-Linux-patches
- started X windows
=> did work ok
- apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade
- X didn't work, message was that no valid mode could be found
- downgraded to 2.2.1 kernel
- restarted today, noted "fixed font" message
- applied fix
=> X runs again
weird. Very weird. Ok, since 2.2.7 brought me again that pesky "eth0
reentering interrupt handler", I stick to 2.2.1, as that is currently the
most stable kernel on my machine. But it is weird, nontheless. Will be
interesting to note what happens if I upgrade to the recent X in a few
days ;-)
bye, Georg
