Hi Ben, I've recompiled using the provided configs, and that nasty IN message is gone. However, the FB freeze still exists, even with video=ofonly. Here's the dmesg attached: However, I've narrowed the cause of this framebuffer hang (happens with rivafb and ofonly video). A long line of

Hi, my dmesg and kern.log seem full of info which floods the useful info you requested. I did spot it mentioning initialising OpenFirmware framebuffer driver. Any idea of how to get the whole dmesg output? Also, I get many copies of this error in kern.log IN from bad port 64 at c014f020 Reg

I've rushed ahead and made the change to mine, and it doesn't seem to make any difference. Sometimes a hang on boot, but what DEFINITELY triggers it is doing something like ls /dev on a console. From an xterm it's fine, but from the console - bang the framebuffer locks solid. The box is still r

Hi! This is my first post to the list. I am new to mailing lists in general and I'm not very familiar with these things ... Anyway, I was just browsing the archives and saw this thread. I'm having lockups with my PB 12" G4 867 Mhz Geforce 440 MX, too: 1) It seems there is still some sort of

Hi, I tried video=ofonly and video=rivafb:noaccel, and the same result occurs. Contrary to my first email, it seems related to the problem already seen on the list, of the framebuffer no longer being refreshed. I can still ping and ssh the system fine, but nothing I do makes the screen unfreeze
