I have a Notebook with an Intel VGA-Controller and the framebuffer will not work. Any idea what could be wrong? What does the line mean 'Video mode must be programmed at boot time'? How can I do this? There is no parameter, which I can give in the 'make menuconfig' process.
The controller is ('lspci | grep VGA'): 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03) The command line (in grub) is: root=/dev/hda3 ro video=intelfb:[EMAIL PROTECTED] resume=/dev/hda6 And the relevant part of dmesg: intelfb: options: [EMAIL PROTECTED] intelfb: intelfb_pci_register ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:02.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 intelfb: fb aperture: 0xc0000000/0x10000000, MMIO region: 0xb0080000/0x80000 intelfb: 00:02.0: Intel(R) 915GM, aperture size 256MB, stolen memory 7932kB intelfb: fb: 0xc0000000(+ 0x0)/0x7bf000 (0xf8a00000) intelfb: MMIO: 0xb0080000/0x80000 (0xfc200000) intelfb: ring buffer: 0xc3001000/0x10000 (0xfba01000) intelfb: HW cursor: 0x0/0x0 (0x00000000) (offset 0x0) (phys 0x0) intelfb: options: vram = 4, accel = 1, hwcursor = 0, fixed = 0, noinit = 0 intelfb: options: mode = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" intelfb: Non-CRT device is enabled ( LVDS port ).
