Re: S3 Problems

Hello,

I don't know if this is interesting for my problem:

[root]/home/road/degas/kgicon/util/# ./con2fbmap 0
ioctl FBIOGET_CON2FBMAP: Invalid argument
[root]/home/road/degas/kgicon/util/# ./con2fbmap 1
console 1 is mapped to framebuffer 0

The link fb0current has been made by me, because con2fbmap was
complaining, that this file was missing.

The interesting thing about my problem is, that it worked
some time ago.... But I don't exactly know what I changed.
Maybe something with this con2fbmap oder /dev/fb* ?

Bye, Lutz
