That disables hardware acceleration. If you want acceleration I should be able to fix the driver if you give me the information I requested. > by the way, what are the correct boot parameters that have to be passed > to the kernel on PPC to make it boot in framebuffer mode 640x480x16? > On i 386 we use video=vesa:ywrap,mtrr vga=788 but and on PPC someone > (http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2005/10/msg01151.html) suggested > > video=radeonfb:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > shall be used: any help on this will be very appreciated. With matroxfb you use something like video=matroxfb:vesa:0x117,fv:72. That's from my kernel command line and it will give you 1024x768 16bpp 72Hz. With most other fbdev drivers you would pass video=<somefb>:[EMAIL PROTECTED] but matroxfb is quite different. Just read kernel_source>/Documentation/fb/matroxfb.txt and you should be able to come up with the correct options. -- Ville Syrjälä [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.sci.fi/~syrjala/ _______________________________________________ directfb-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mail.directfb.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/directfb-dev
