Hi. I'm using debian testing with vanilla kernel 2.6.32-rc8. I've staticaly compiled i915 with kms enabled and it acctually works. The only thing that annoyes me is that after init runs runlevel 2, it automatically switches to vt 4 (I have only 4 vt running from init) a continues boot messages there. I'm not sure what does that, I'm suspecting console-setup of doing that.
Is this happening to anyone else? Before I dig into console documentation to learn how it works to fix it. I guess that is going to be time consuming. Also, kernel switches the required video mode a bit later then vesafb did. Is there a way to set this on the kernel command line? I've read that it is recommended to get rid of the vga=<mode>. I've tried setting this via video= parameter, but I guess inteldrmfb doesn't support modedb. The vga= probably uses vesa mode that isn't part of the fbcon. However, I know almost nothing about how that actually works. It would be just a nice thing to have the correct mode set right from the start. thanks for any pointers mk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
