One thing I noticed related to initramfs-tools - 0.92bubuntu51 is that if I put video=uvesafb:1400x1050 in the boot parameter, in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-top/framebuffer, it runs: modprobe -q uvesafb mode=1400x1050 instead of modprobe -q uvesafb mode_option=1400x1050
i.e. it actually uses "mode=" instead of "mode_options". The kernel module "uvesafb" from 2.6.31-11-generic in the Karmic actually uses the option "mode_option" insetad of "mode" $ modinfo -F parm uvesafb |grep "video mode" mode_option:Specify initial video mode as "<xres>x<yres>[-<bpp>][@<refresh>]" Where am I wrong or is this a bug that the function parse_video_opts in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-top/framebuffer should be fixed?
