Hello,

After completing a successful build of LFS, I restart to get into the system for the first time and my screen turns black and then comes back on for about 1 second.

I have a NVidia Vanta LT card in my PC. I am using the Nouveau drivers for the framebuffer, as I plan to install X. I have Nouveau configured as well in the kernel.

I can tell that the system booted successfully, but I have already tried various options in kernel configuration (such as Generic VESA). I would also like to keep my bootlogo, but I am willing to remove it if necessary.

The system appears to have issues detecting the card because of the resolution (it stays at about 640x480). I have booted several LiveCDs (Ubuntu and System Rescue CD) successfully without this problem.

Host: System Rescue CD (added bison to image)
NOTE: this system is i686
Compaq Presario 5230us if that helps.

Thank you,

Douglas Reno



If you haven't done it yet, I highly recommend examining the output of 'dmesg.' I find it a really useful diagnostic and troubleshooting tool for things like this. Through it I identified and resolved, with the help of this list, a problem with my wireless driver, and I'm currently working on finetuning my graphics drivers. It's a great help.
