Hello, ... I have just tried booting linux on my pegasos board, which contains a powerpc processor on a Mai Logic chipset (following the POP design from IBM). I use my old PCI Matrox Millenium II board. Linux boots fine (i can type stuff, and write to the harddisk), but i have no video output. I didn't manage yet to get any kind of boot log message, so i don't really know what the problem is, and typing blindly is not all that easy. So, my question is if you have reports of matroxfb working on powerpc or something such ? The board works fine in OF. I am using 2.4.18 + the POP patches 0.9.2 + a few pegasos specific changes which should not have any influence on the fbdev output. Friendly, Sven Luther |
