[Linux-fbdev-users] Scrambled output with new radeonfb driver

[Jean D. <kh...@li...>]

Hi all,

I decided to give a try to the new radeonfb driver (Linux 2.6.3-rc3) on
my new Radeon 9200-based graphics card ("Ya" if that matters). The
driver works overall good and could detect the correct DFP size with no
parameter given, which is more than the Linux 2.4 driver was able to do.

However, at the moment the driver is initialized, I got scambled output
in the upper left hand corner of my screen. I've taken a snapshot of it
using my webcam, available here:

Is it a known problem? Is there some parameter I can pass to the driver
to prevent the problem? Or do I just have to live with it?

It doesn't seem to cause trouble otherwise, so this is in no way a
critical problem, but I'm a curious guy.

Thanks.
