2.6.5rc1bk2: vesafb produces blank screen, 2.4.22 works

[Jens Benecke]

Hi,

upgraded to 2.6.5rc1bk2 on my work machine. Everything is fine so far,
except for the boot process, which I simply do not see (until X11 comes
up). I have a "ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV100 QY [Radeon 7000/VE]"
graphics adapter, according to lspci.

This is the relevant portion of my .config ... is there anything I need to
add to get 1280x1024 with a small VGA font at bootup?


Thank you!
