James, =09=09I still see the same problem using 2.5.59. I think this is the same problem as that referred to by Udo A. Steinberg http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=3Dlinux-kernel&m=3D104278873827538&w=3D2 ( I get similar results as him if I compile rivafb built-in ) Is this possibly related to driver-model issues discussed in this thread = ? http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=3Dlinux-kernel&m=3D104283662023857&w=3D2 Good news is that 2.5.59 seems quite stable as regards framebuffer. It no longer locks up after loading fbcon. But rmmod fbcon still causes instant death accompanied by increased whirring noises from inside box. To summarise: insmod rivafb causes "Badness in kobject_register" every time=20 ( after pci_register_driver() in rivafb_init(),see below ) after insmod rivafb, I have a green screen, which can be cleared by fbse= t ( fbset now changes resolution of all VTs, this is different from 2.4.x= ) after clearing green screen using fbset, text colours are wrong now ( 2.5.59 ), I can insmod fbcon, and screen looks OK again ( apart fr= om the left-hand-most column of screen appears at right-hand side of scree= n ) rmmod fbcon locks up machine, no ALT-SYSRQ effective Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: About to pci_module_init() in rivafb_init() Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: Entering rivafb_probe() Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: rivafb: nVidia device/chipset 10DE002C Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: rivafb: RIVA MTRR set to ON Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: About to pci_set_drvdata() in rivafb_probe(= ) Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: rivafb: PCI nVidia NV4 framebuffer ver 0.9.= 5b (nVidiaRIVA-VTNT2, 16MB @ 0xD0000000) Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: Return OK from rivafb_probe() Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: About to pci_register_driver() in rivafb_in= it() Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: Badness in kobject_register at lib/kobject.= c:152 Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: Call Trace: Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: [<d08d17b4>] rivafb_driver+0x54/0xfffe0918= [rivafb] Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: [<c01d1436>] kobject_register+0x56/0x60 Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: [<d08d17a4>] rivafb_driver+0x44/0xfffe0918= [rivafb] Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: [<c0202707>] bus_add_driver+0x57/0xf0 Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: [<d08d17a4>] rivafb_driver+0x44/0xfffe0918= [rivafb] Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: [<c0202b91>] driver_register+0x31/0x40 Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: [<d08d1788>] rivafb_driver+0x28/0xfffe0918= [rivafb] Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: [<c01d5ae9>] pci_register_driver+0x49/0x60 Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: [<d08d1788>] rivafb_driver+0x28/0xfffe0918= [rivafb] Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: [<d08b204a>] +0x4a/0x68 [rivafb] Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: [<d08d1760>] rivafb_driver+0x0/0xfffe0918 = [rivafb] Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: [<d08d3100>] +0x0/0xfffdef78 [rivafb] Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: [<c0133e07>] sys_init_module+0x117/0x1c0 Jan 18 14:44:10 TBird kernel: [<c010a393>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb =09=09=09=09Thanks, =09=09=09=09=09=09Jak.
