on my virtual pc installation i fixed the problem with the following steps:
1. sudo vi /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and add fbcon and vesafb so my /etc/initramfs-tools/modules looks like: fbcon vesafb 2. sudo update-initramfs -u 3. sudo vi /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer change the line "blacklist vesafb" to "# blacklist vesafb" 4. reboot and everything is fine HTH MOM -- tty[1-6] are active but display nothing in Gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/129910 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
