I first wanted to say how nice it is to see linux boot from linuxbios with graphical console and have X come up... a beautiful thing!
So now when linux boots, video looks good, but I am unable to use the mouse + keyboard. I have CONFIG_CONSOLE_SERIAL8250 defined in linuxbios and I think this may have something to with it (but then again this could just be a generic linux problem and nothing to do with linuxbios). Any ideas? Will I need btextconsole.c to fix this? Im just trying to determine if I need to modify something in linuxbios resolve this? Otherwise Ill assume this to be a more generic linux console problem and proceed from there. any input is welcome. thanks... -Regards, Brian On Tue, 2004-04-20 at 15:41, YhLu wrote: > Ron, > > I have enabled the ati rage xl frame buffer in LinuxBIOS, also moved the > btext.c to the LinuxBIOS.
