Public bug reported:
On my Powermac G4 (quicksilver) running Edgy, during boot up, there is
no splash screen. After the yaboot prompt, the screen goes completely
white for a minute or so, and eventually the gdm login screen appears.
Once the computer has started, when I try to switch to a virtual
terminal, (control + alt + F Key) - I get, a black and white distorted
version of my previous screen.
On shutdown, the screen looks like it does when I try to get a virtual
terminal - the screen shows a black and white distorted version of my
last screen.
Both problems started when I upgraded to Dapper.
I am using a GeForce2 MX card with the nv driver.
Here is my yaboot.conf:
image=/boot/vmlinux
label=Linux
read-only
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="quiet splash"
If I remove "quiet" from the append line, the computer will not boot
(monitor goes to standby (no signal) after yaboot prompt). If I remove
"splash", there is no change (screen still goes white, still no
terminals).
