When I boot 2.6.27-r2, it creates /dev/fb0 and /dev/db, which X |
| 2 |
complains about and refuses to run. My machine has an ATI Radeon and |
| 3 |
X under 2.6.26 finds the right driver just fine, but X under 2.6.27 |

just barfs and refuses to run. I can del the two device entries and X |

is happy, but this seems like the wrong thing to do. |

| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Framebuffer is configured as modules in both kernels, and none are |
| 12 |
loaded by conf.d/modules. However, 2.6.27 loads atyfb on its own and |
| 13 |
the boot screen flickers at two points, presumably as it switches to |
| 14 |
the frame buffer. |

Is there some difference in 2.6.26 and 2.6.27 regarding the frame |
| 17 |
buffer? |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Is there any boot option to disbale the frame buffer? |
