I've had this problem (with the same exact kernel versions) while using the "radeonfb" module for my ATI Radeon 7200. I managed to switch back to using the non framebuffer version and everything worked fine. Disable the framebuffer module/support for your card or maybe try playing with the lilo.conf vga=* setting. I would expect the framebuffer module is only used for some fancy console video modes, no? hth, Thamer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
