I tried on another machine with 2.6.22-14-, both 386 & generic, and Matrox G400. More less the same problem, except that once KDM starts, trying to switch to tty[1-6] gives me the KDM background image instead of a black screen, but all during init it's all black.
vesafb does not show up in lsmod output. fbcon and matrox_w1 do. When I do modprobe vesafb manually in Konsole, I get the ttys video working. Alternatively, I can switch to a tty, login blindly, and modprobe vesafb there for the same result. -- 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
