Bug#800005: fbset gets 'ioctl FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO: Invalid argument'
Do I understand correctly that I should put “drm.debug=0xe” as a kernel argument at boot time? Then boot, try running my “fbset” test and send you the entire output of dmesg including all boot messages. Is this correct?
Further, I guess you would prefer to have this on the amd64 machine in question rather than the original powerpc machine?
What other info should I send? If I use the amd64 machine, I guess you’d like some hardware configuration info as well? Please be specific: a verbatim list of shell commands you’d like me to run would be most helpful!
Thanks!
Rick
