I'm not using those modules. Unless KMS actively breaks because those |
| 7 |
modules exist but aren't loaded, I don't see how framebuffer modules |
| 8 |
are the problem. |

I added VIDEO_CARDS and remerged xorg-server and xorg-drivers. This |
| 13 |
made no difference; the log file is exactly the same other than a |
| 14 |
minor Mhz change. |

It tells how to set up a config file for 1.8, which I had working |
| 19 |
without a config file, so this particular upgrade guide seems rather |
| 20 |
useless. My only problem is that 1.9.2 doesn't set the right screen |
| 21 |
size. That probably does point to KMS in some manner, but a 1.8 |
| 22 |
upgrade guide doesn't deal with it. |
