For me, radeonfb hasn't been working with recent 2.5 kernels, in fact there's been no trace whatsoever of it in the kernel output, as if it wasn't there. I wonder if it's related to the PCI code; with a 2.4 kernel, I get a lot of PCI related output, like PCI: Probing PCI hardware Scanning bus 00 Found 00:58 [106b/002d] 000600 00 Found 00:80 [1002/4c66] 000300 00 Fixup res 1 (101) of dev 00:10.0: 400 -> 802400 Fixups for bus 00 Bus scan for 00 returning with max=00 Scanning bus 10 [ more PCI probing stuff ] PCI:24:0e.0: Resource 0: f5000000-f5000fff (f=200), vd: 11c1, dev: 5811 Linux NET4.0 for Linux 2.4 whereas with a 2.5 kernel just this: PCI: Probing PCI hardware Can't get bus-range for /pci@f2000000/cardbus@1a BIO: pool of 256 setup, 14Kb (56 bytes/bio) But then maybe the code in question has just been made less verbose? -- Earthling Michel Dänzer \ Debian (powerpc), XFree86 and DRI developer Software libre enthusiast \ http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=daenzer ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
