Honnestly, I'm astonished that this ever worked. AFAK ppc never had working domain support, and the machines in this bug report have their vga controllers in domain 1.
In the 'old days' there was procfs support, and for some insane reason the domain ('host bridge' in the case of Pegasos) was somehow fudged into the bus ID. This worked somehow, scarily, because of the way the PCI controller routed things. However it isn't two buses on one PCI controller, it's two real PCI controllers on real seperate domains. When sysfs gives you a domain, you're stuck. However the legacy procfs interface still does the bus fudging; it's just being/been deprecated. There are some patches around (to get Ubuntu Edgy working) which roll back the sysfs support and get it working. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
