Framebuffer problems, 2.4.20-rc2, 2.5.51
Hardware:
00:0a.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage Pro 215GP (rev 5c)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV20 [GeForce3 Ti200] (rev a3)
Using ATYFB with CONFIG_FB_ATY, CONFIG_FB_ATY_CT and RIVAFB
2.4.20-rc2:
Kernel freezes upon loading the ATYFB driver. No error messages.Sysrq has no effect. Riva framebuffer alone works.
2.5.51:
Kernel freezes upon loading the ATYFB driver. No error messages. Sysrq has no effect.
Riva (tested without atyfb) shows a black screen, apparently followed by a kernel freeze since Sysrq has no effect.
Kernel without boots without framebuffer, so the framebuffer causes the
freeze.
