Re: Problems with X on my Titanium PB
Okay, in the log are the lines:

Thus it would appear that while the driver recognizes what M9 is, it
still does not work. The character devices /dev/fb{1-7} do exist, so
something is odd.
Now, the directory /dev/dri is empty. Should there be something in it?
Or is it because of previous failures that the DRI thing did not work,
and it will go away when the other problem is fixed?
I am not using video=ofonly in yaboot.conf, which I noticed was
mentioned in archived messages.
Please forgive me my ignorance about getting X to work.

so this would mean that the frame buffer device is not being used, even
though it tried, right?
The console does not work once X is run.
Sorry, what is "OFfb"?
A generic framebuffer device, similar to vesafb. You need to get
radeonfb going, that should solve your X and console problems.
