I'm having problems getting the OPIE packages (open palm packages, not one time password) to work on a system that currently can only do 4-bit colour with its framebuffer. Running opie-login results in:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc# opie-login Can't drive depth 4 failed to run /usr/share/opie-login/post-session [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc# with all the previously white text changed to yellow and the text cursor disappears until reset is issued at the console. The system currently uses vga16fb with the 2.4.26-lck1 kernel, even though I found a patch that adds a new framebuffer driver that has (according to the author) worked with the video chip that I have (Chips and Technologies F65545) and supports 8 and 16-bit colour. I am currently playing patch the kernel to try to get a kernel that works with the patch and my video chip (I get a blank screen with the patched kernel while following the instructions). I can't use vesafb because the video chip is VESA 1.2, and vesafb requires VESA 2.0. I haven't yet been able to find much documentation about configuring OPIE, and none about the problem that I'm having (although it's possible that I just haven't tried the right search terms). -- Seneca [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
