The mdacon driver detects a mda card only by checking if memory at 0xb0000 is accessible (for write and read). If your vga card does decode those addressess, I can think of the following options: * enable the commented out tests in mda_detect. * make the mda driver disable all pci vga cards, before probing for mda. * don't insmod mdacon.c on a system without a mda driver. * find a better way to detect an mda card. -- Matan Ziv-Av. ma...@sv... |
