Re: help on console video problem
Well what I've found seems to help is to execute:
fbset -a -accel false
This (to my understanding) disables hardware framebuffer acceleration.
This has stopped the corrupted characters on my consoles. Is there any
way to do this with boot args?
Also I tried to set my keyboard repeat rate using kbdrate and froze the
system. Is that known to be broken on powerpc? The following was logged:
