I've tracked down when the framebuffers were removed https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2011-April/015249.html
KMS was also turned off at the same time https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2011-April/015248.html . If I am reading that correctly, it looks like KMS was left on for PowerPC 64 bit machines. I wonder if this is still the case? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/949288 Title: Build in ATI/radeon framebuffers on PowerPC To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/949288/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
