Adding to the last comment. It almost worked but I did the following. 1. Edited /etc/yaboot.conf changed append to, "video=offb:off video=nvidiafb quiet splash" 2. Ran 'sudo ybin -v' 3. Edited /etc/initramfs-tools/modules added the new line, "nvidiafb noaccel=1" 4. Edited /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer commented out, "blacklist nvidiafb" 5. Ran 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-`uname -r`' 6. Rebooted
This is for a 1.33 GHz 12" Powerbook G4 with an Nvidia GeForce Go5200. With these changes I can now also use the framebuffer for mac-on-linux and still have brightness controls. Of course uplash is also now shown correctly which is what brought me to this bug initially. The key changes were adding noaccel when loading the nvidiafb module and putting the nvidiafb module into initramfs. -- USplash looks corrupted on PPC https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/21478 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
