[Linux-fbdev-devel] ruby on pm3/i386

[Sven L. <lu...@la...>]

Hello, ...

i tried the new pm3fb driver in ruby, from yesterdays CVS, and well, it hanged
in the same place.

I added some printk's into the __fb_try_mode function, and the last message
displayed before the OOPS was SVEN : 19, which is just before the if line :

    printk ("SVEN : 18\n");
    var->vmode = mode->vmode
    printk ("SVEN : 19\n");
    if (info->fbops->fb_check_var)
	err = info->fbops->fb_check_var(var, info);
    printk ("SVEN : 20\n");
    return !err;
}

So, i hope this gives you more information to tackle this bug.

That said, does pm3fb + ruby work somewhere ? Does it work for you romain with
pm3fb on ppc, or for someone else on i386 ?

Friendly,
