--- Comment #7 from Андрей Кольчугин
Also, btw, I can't see why with "nomodeset" you would have to live without X - you may to to reconfigure X for that purpose (in the worst case using the fb driver), but that doesn't mean X is entirely unavailable. Unfortunately, X is entirely unavailable as of framebuffer by itself is -- under _any_ working IOMMU (either under bare Linux kernel or under tboot/Linux) vesafb doesn't recognise any devices.
Yes, one can use, for example 'modprobe vga16fb' (it works, though) -- but one hardly can tell 'that doesn't mean X is entirely unavailable' if they have X with 640x480x16 :) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
