[Linux-fbdev-users] (2.6.9-rc4|2.6.9|2.6.10-rc1) black cursor on console [ppc platform]

[Elimar R. <rie...@lx...>]

Hi all,

I am running 2.6.10-rc1 on my Apple AlBG4. gpm is started at boottime. The
mousecursor is black colored on vt's and can be used as a brush to
darken the screen.

$ /usr/sbin/fbset
mode "1280x854-60"
    # D: 79.815 MHz, H: 51.963 kHz, V: 60.003 Hz
    geometry 1280 854 1280 854 8
    timings 12529 128 16 8 1 112 3
    rgba 8/0,8/0,8/0,0/0
endmode

$ cat /proc/fb
0 ATI Radeon NP

The bootlogo isn`t shown.

The same kernel on a i386 box with radeonfb (Radeon 9000) works
fine.

Any hints to get back a white mousecursor and a shown bootlogo as in
2.6.8?

Thx

Elimar
