Finally I'm able to run uvesafb. This is what I did: -- installed v86d from intrepid repo -- added the module uvesafb in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules -- removed all the old parameter in /boot/grub/menu.lst, like video=... -- created /etc/modprobe.d/uvesafb containing the parameters for uvesafb. In my case the line : "options uvesafb mode=1280x768-32 mtrr=3 scroll=ywrap" (without ") -- updated the initramfs with the command update-initramfs -u -- rebooted
got it! hope this can help -- Switched from vesafb to uvesafb, but uvesafb can't work without v86d https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246269 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
