--- Comment #44 from Alejandro Valenzuela <lanj...@mexinetica.com> 2010-02-23 01:59:51 --- @Ste: I also suspect the Nvidia driver is to blame for not being able to switch to a text terminal, it's happened before (toshiba laptops 1-2 years ago or so..). The backlight control: it seems to me that it boots with whatever backlight setting it had last using OSX which is not too bad. I'm using Debian i386 (i.e. 32 bits) with a mixture of Lenny and Squeeze packages; with a custom kernel 2.6.32.7 (disabled everything I didn't need). I have no problems with the audio (once configured). I used to be able to use the iSight; right now the system is not "noticing" it in spite of having the firmware properly loaded and the uvc video drivers. I don't think it's because of booting via EFI because I've tried it while booting "normally" (maxcpus=1 and normal, non-efi grub; in this case I've tried also a previous kernel and a debian generic 2.6.26, in both which I used to be able to get iSight up and running but for some reason it won't anymore. I suspect the udev update broke something :S) Ah, and last but not least.. by using the efi-grub I'm able to boot without the need of any kernel command line option (though of course video=efifb is necessary in case of problems while booting, otherwise nothing is visible :P) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
