Thanks, going to try this too. |
53 |
|
54 |
Now I get something in a (what seems a) "VGA compatible controller", and |
55 |
although the frame buffer is working, the Tux logos and all text characters |
56 |
are all white and irregular blocks, with approximate expected sizes for |
57 |
characters, but it looks like each one was written twice, a bit shifted |
58 |
each time, so some of them even merge. Even the colored brief diagnostic |
59 |
messages for the results of the init scripts are also white. |
60 |
|
61 |
I guess I forgot to add the intel drivers to the kernel, going to check |
62 |
this first. |
63 |

64 |
Thanks again, |
