Subject: Font selection with i915
Date: Sun, 17 Jan 2010 12:00:58 -0500 (EST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.44L0.1001171154220.21718-100000@netrider.rowland.org> (raw)
When Fedora 12 loads i915 during initramfs probing on my system, the
driver automatically installs a tiny 160x64 font. How can I prevent it
from doing this, or tell it to use a larger 80x25 font instead?
Is this documented anywhere?
In addition, are the error messages in the following dmesg log anything
to be concerned about? They appear during every boot:
[drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810
i915 0000:00:02.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
