For example, another anomoly I've seen with framebuffer is that when I use the "silent" profile, the framebuffer image only initializes vc/0. However, if I use the "verbose" profile, it will initialize all of my vc's (like it's supposed to do). My card is an Intel 82852/82855 Integrated Graphics (i8x0) > When it does work, I haven't changed anything in my systems setup. Same here. -- G a b r i e l M .
