I am using a Radeon 9000 card. Worked perfectly under 2.4.23 (although little success with X)

booting the Vm linux from yaboot with the novideo option had no effect.
"ultra2:11, /vmlinux novideo"

As well, the video=openfb doesnt work.

I have tried the suggestions quoted on <URL:http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/post-halloween-2.5.txt> with no success. I haven't explicitly added CONFIG_FB_CONSOLE but CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE was set. The new Radeon drivers were set to load as a module, and the character radeon drivers were also set in the config.

Still no success.

If you have an nvidia card, try using the openfirmware framebuffer driver instread of the nvidia driver.

At least for me (G4 Cube + Geforce 2MX) the driver is broken. I see the same screen as you and nothing happens. At least with openfirmware framebuffer driver it works.

I have been having lots of difficulty trying to move from benh-2.4.23 to 2.6

I have tried compiling from the kernel.org source as well as with the benh 2.5-2.6 source. In all cases, the kernel will compile using the make-kpkg command, installation works normally as well. However on boot the following screen is displayed
