Package: v86d
Version: 0.1.5.2-1
Severity: normal
Hey,
I tried to use the new v86d from the initramfs so I could have a framebuffer
in early stages, but it doesn't work.
Logs say:
Aug 1 08:11:06 hidalgo kernel: agpgart: Detected an Intel 965GM Chipset.
Aug 1 08:11:06 hidalgo kernel: agpgart: Detected 7676K stolen memory.
Aug 1 08:11:06 hidalgo kernel: agpgart: AGP aperture is 256M @ 0xe0000000
Aug 1 08:11:06 hidalgo kernel: uvesafb: Getting VBE info block failed
(eax=0x4f00, err=-3)
Aug 1 08:11:06 hidalgo kernel: uvesafb: vbe_init() failed with -22
Aug 1 08:11:06 hidalgo kernel: uvesafb: probe of uvesafb.0 failed with error
-22
As you may know I run a Thinkpad T61 full intel and can provide other stuff. I
didn't specify a mode in the /etc/initramfs-tools/modules line because anyway
bios doesn't send 1400x1050 as a valid resolution for my screen.
If you need more info, please ask :)
Cheers,

As noone objected, I consider this bug as closed, as the proper using
of v86d inside an initrd is now documented in README.Debian.
Please reopen if you feel different.
