Hi,
This is a bit odd. I've just upgraded my laptop to etch and xorg. Today,
I compiled a new 2.6.13.3 kernel. To my grub entry I added the option,
vga=791, to the kernel line, but now this has the effect of blanking the
screen until the boot process has completed.
My old 2.6.12 kernel still works quite happily with vga=791.
Any idea how to retrieve the "old" behaviour?
first do oldconfig before compiling or check during configuring.
see for these in kernel config
