Yes, I used everything as default as possible. |
25 |
I used 'genkernel' to build my kernel with the default configuration. |
26 |
|
27 |
I assumed that even though the kernel has framebuffer support built in, |
28 |
it won't use it if it is not configured as kernel parameter in |
29 |
grub.conf. |
30 |
Maybe that was a wrong assumption? |
31 |
|
32 |
I used to initially have "video=vesafb-tng:mtrr,ywrap,1024x768-32@85" in |
33 |
the kernel parameters. |
34 |
However, I removed it when the boot process stalled after "vesafb: |
35 |
scrolling: redraw" |
36 |
|
37 |
So it looks like I could go two ways: |
38 |
- Configure the framebuffer properly in grub.conf. |
39 |
- Build a new kernel with framebuffer disabled. |
40 |
|
41 |
I would prefer the first option... |
