Sure enough, the patch was succesful. Unfortunately, I cannot test it, |
| 16 |
because my computer is out of luck (big thunderstorm, crappy power |
| 17 |
provider, not-so-smart owner). I can ssh into it and it all seems |
| 18 |
fine, but VT's other than tty1 go dim after 1 or 2 seconds (showing |
| 19 |
the greeting) and then go black; I can login blindly! |
| 20 |
I'm sure it has nothing to do with the patch, since I also booted the |
| 21 |
former kernel (for which the previous patch has been applied with |
| 22 |
success as expected) and it happens the same. Damaged UPS or MO, |
| 23 |
maybe... |
| 24 |
Anyway, I'll try again when I manage to fix or replace the computer |
| 25 |
and I'll report then. |

Thanks, |

P.S. I just noticed you mention gentoo-sources. I use the vanilla |
| 32 |
kernel from kernel.org. Could that be a problem? |
