Okey, I went over the settings, and I have a few suspicious things. First of, do you load the framebuffer console module? The one in drivers=>Graphics support=>Console display driver support, AKA FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE ?? This is an absolutely necessary module. The other module I am interested in is VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL ? Third you might want to try with FB_TILEBLITTING, in drivers=>Graphics support=>Support for frame buffer devices Also, you might want to explore VGA_SWITCHEROO (not too much logic in that, I just have it compiled in, it's a shot). Turns out VESA really isn't the problem - I just discovered I had it compiled right in all this time. :) -AKuktin -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
