rivafb still broken in 2.5.59
I am using a Geforce 4 Ti 4200, and with great joy I saw that recent 2.5 kernels actually recognize the PCI IDs of this card, so I tried the module again.
And indeed, my screen went blank, and then started looking like a whole lot of tiny moose droppings. I can log in, I can run ls -l, and I can see motion, but that's about it. I write this because rivafb has been broken for months now (also on my notebook with Geforce2 Go), and it is now broken in a different way, so I thought I'd mention it, since someone appears to be working on it.
You know, it would help a lot if that someone would publish his email address somewhere.
