I'm finding the framebuffer isn't working in latest git, but does in 2.6.17-omap2. I can't see any changes in drivers/video/omap between the two. Is anyone else experiencing this (or is anyone successfully using the framebuffer with latest git)?

(This is on the Amstrad Delta, so OMAP150, with a patch that isn't yet in git but is the same for both 2.6.17-omap2 and latest git - I was in the process of making sure it still worked so I could submit it.)

Ok. This seems to work fine if I actually complete a boot (I'm having other issues with the new MTD OOB code that means my rootfs isn't workin), so it looks like something else is just causing the screen to blank when there's an issue.
