I am also hit by bug 570228. Apparently this bug is the cause of /dev/dri* not being present. When I turn off KMS the device node is present - /dev/dri/card0.
I found a relevant thread here - http://us.generation-nt.com/answer/how-activate-kms-radeon-video-card-powerpc-help-196523701.html According to comments in the thread 'radeonfb' prevents KMS from taking ownership of the GPU. radeonfb is built into kernel. So I tried passing 'video=radeonfb:off' argument to kernel. But then the display fails to come up. So I guess radeonfb is needed at some point of time in boot process. Is it possible to built radeonfb as module instead of in kernel, so that it is loaded/unloaded on need basis? -- [powerpc] Text theme used even when logo theme is configured https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/596515 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
