Hi Leann, Thanks for this post. After updating to kernel 2.6.27-1,After bootup, I'm having the following problems :
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dmesg | grep uvesa [ 0.000000] Kernel command line: root=UUID=c48d6261-5fb3-45fd-9cec-ade1e3816556 ro video=uvesafb:800x600-16,mtrr:3,ywrap [ 1.897079] uvesafb: Unknown parameter `mode' [ 6.976027] uvesafb: Getting VBE info block failed (eax=0x4f00, err=1) [ 6.976109] uvesafb: vbe_init() failed with -22 [ 6.976263] uvesafb: probe of uvesafb.0 failed with error -22 More weird, lsmod | grep uvesafb says the module is loaded, but [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ less /sys/bus/platform/drivers/uvesafb/uvesafb.0/vbe_modes /sys/bus/platform/drivers/uvesafb/uvesafb.0/vbe_modes: No such file or directory Re-loading the uvesafb using the 'mode' parameter doesn't work neither : [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/boomer# modprobe -r uvesafb [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/boomer# modprobe uvesafb mode=1024x768-32 mtrr=3 scroll=ywrap FATAL: Error inserting uvesafb (/lib/modules/2.6.27-1-generic/initrd/uvesafb.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) So, I wonder if anything is wrong with my uvesafb version (I don't know how to figure it) as 'mode' the parameter seems to never work when used in kernel command line bootup options, nor in modprobe reload options. However, re-loading uvesafb without 'mode' parameter (with modprobe) seems to work fine and the supported mode can now be printed as in : [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /sys/bus/platform/drivers/uvesafb/uvesafb.0/vbe_modes ... 800x600-8, 0x0103 1024x768-8, 0x0105 320x200-16, 0x010e 320x200-32, 0x010f 640x480-16, 0x0111 640x480-32, 0x0112 800x600-16, 0x0114 800x600-32, 0x0115 1024x768-16, 0x0117 1024x768-32, 0x0118 ... Does anyone have a clue why 'mode' parameter is reported 'unknown' now? -- Switched from vesafb to uvesafb, but uvesafb can't work without v86d https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246269 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
