That's some obsolete PCI card. The ones you will typically encounter are PCIe or AGP.

PowerPC uses offb for generic graphics output. Either replace it with simpledrm or implement a DRM driver that replaces offb.
The new driver 'ofdrm' has been enabled in master as of commit eebb76b297a ("ppc64: Swap out FB_OF for OFDRM (boo#1193476)"). It'll be in TW with the kernel update to v6.2. Closing as RESOLVED. Shoutout to Michal for taking care of the switch from offb. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
