I see a similar message using a nVIDIA card with nouveau: fb: conflicting fb hw usage nouveaufb vs OFfb NVDA,Displ - removing generic driver It doesn't seem to interfere with successful loading of the nouveau driver. (I'm guessing this message corresponds to the moment during boot when the console display briefly becomes garbage before flickering a bit and settling back down with the newly loaded driver.) I don't have any graphics listed in /etc/modules which I'm aware of: apm_emu firewire-sbp2 loop snd-powermac I did, however, have to edit yaboot.conf to prevent nvidiafb being loaded else nouveau wouldn't load at all. - cfr -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-powerpc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
