Hi Thierry, I believe bug 1965303 has provided the reason Ubuntu deprecated fbdev, and there is also a url to Fedora's kernel commit that did the same thing.
The Ubuntu generic kernels want to serve as much users as possible, however that certainly doesn't and cannot mean all. Anyone may have some kind of awesome works and some of them might depend on a specific kernel feature that is currently turned off/unavailable in Ubuntu generic kernels. That, unfortunately, happens from time to time. But, you don't have to fight for it. You can have it right now. You can certainly download, patch, and build your own Ubuntu kernels with everything you desperately wanted, freely, forever. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2104014 Title: CONFIG_FB_EFI needed in initramfs for linuxboot based systems To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2104014/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
