Hello, I'm trying to get intelfb compiled into kernel 2.6.11(-gentoo-r5) with video=intelfb:1024x768-16@60 in my grub.conf kernel command line to work with my fujitsu-siemens lifebook (with intel 82852/855GM graphics) and keep getting the following in dmesg: intelfb: Framebuffer driver for Intel(R) 830M/845G/852GM/855GM/865G chipsets intelfb: Version 0.9.2 intelfb: 00:02.0: Intel(R) 855GM, aperture size 128MB, stolen memory 8060kB intelfb: Non-CRT device is enabled ( LVDS port ). Disabling mode switching. intelfb: Video mode must be programmed at boot time. And I'm left with the text console. I've also tried other modes (theoretically, the system supports 1400x1050-24@60), but with no success so far. (Research in Gentoo forums makes me think I'm not the only person getting these error messages, but I didn't find anything usable there.) Any help would be welcome, I'd help gladly with testing fixes (if it's the driver's and not my fault). Greetings themuse |

Hi, =20 Local Flat Panel support isn't fully implemented in intelfb. Only=20 CRT output is. The workaround is to use the BIOS to program the graphic=20 chip at boot time using the 'vga=3D' option. One restriction is the drive= r=20 cannot change video modes.

hello again, i tried different modes (both decimal and hexadecimal) with vga=... in the kernel command line in grub.conf, but I always got the "you passed an undefined video mode" error message on bootup. soit seems like i'm pretty much stuck here... bernie Am Sonntag, den 24.04.2005, 23:35 +0200 schrieb Sylvain Meyer: > Hi, > > Local Flat Panel support isn't fully implemented in intelfb.

Hi, vga=3D depends on the BIOS. Check which modes are possible with your=20 BIOS. Also, vesafb is it working for you ? If yes, you should stick with=20 it. I don't own a flat-panel, so I won't implement LFP support. I hope=20 somebody else will help for implementing it. I think it's not a very=20 difficult thing to do. But as i can't debug it, i won't try it. Regards Sylvain themuse a =E9crit: >hello,=20 > >anybody have any clue why vga=3D... (as specified below) doesn't work >either for me?
