Package: linux-2.6 Version: 2.6.25-4 Severity: wishlist Sparc systems by default use the framebuffer and often have two video cards, e.g. for my Ultra 10: a "standard" ATI and a "professional" Creator 3D card.
Problem always has been detecting which card was "active". Getting it right frequently required users disabling one or the other. IIUC the FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DETECT_PRIMARY config option was designed to solve this problem and take the correct framebuffer based on firmware settings. However, I see that in current kernels this option is not enabled. Please consider enabling it, at least for Sparc but possibly for other architectures as well. Cheers, FJP
