See my other mail, it depends though on the size of it. How comes rivafb can't take over from offb though ? Can you or Guido fill a proper bug report about this ? We still want to be able to fit on a miboot floppy, and integrate as many fbdevs as possible. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 65118 2005-01-29 23:47 /lib/modules/2.6.8-powerpc/kernel/drivers/video/riva/rivafb.ko So, this means adding 65KB to the kernel, or probably 20-30KB compressed, will make a test with it builtin and the miboot floppies, and tell you.
