Re: iBook framebuffer
Ok, that does at least start to solve the problem. I no longer see an error
when it tried to load r128.o. On the iBook I have, firewire, if I turn
off the novideo option, I lose my display. I was playing around with
the append line and set video=aty128fb. This did not change anything.
The output from loading up is
Using unsupported 800x600 ...
__ioremap(): ...
fb0: Open Firmware frame buffer device on ...
And cat /proc/fb results in
0 OFfb ...
Any ideas?
