All four machines here exhibit the same problem. Some are VGA connected, others HDMI. Each has a different video card. The three downstairs are servers, no X, using the video cards in text mode. The laptop has an HD3000, uses X, X works but boot messages, like the three downstairs are black holes. I suspect it's some commit from Jan 5 as messages did display then. This morning, nothing. The puzzling thing is that the commits between Jan 5 and now look innocuous. -- Cheers, Cy Schubert <[email protected]> FreeBSD UNIX: <[email protected]> Web: https://FreeBSD.org NTP: <[email protected]> Web: https://nwtime.org The need of the many outweighs the greed of the few. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/dev-commits-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
