If you still have your old kernel w/o the module built-in, and if there is framebuffer console module for your chip that is comparable to atyfb for the mach64 rage/pro, you could also see if (re)gen'ing your initrd makes any difference. I haven't looked at that stuff in years, but I vaguely remember that it was as simple as running update-initramfs in the initramfs-tools package. But don't take my word for it, unless you are familiar with the proedure, you do need to research it a bit. cj -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
