Product: XFree86
Component: XFree86
Summary: nvidia driver messes up console mode (framebuffer?)
Product: XFree86
Version: 4.3-17mdk
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: XFree86
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I don't know if this is an nvidia issue, XFree or maybee even kernel, but I
hope some does.
After installing and using nvidia driver with XFree in a fresh 9.2 beta 2 the
font (and penguin) in ctrl-alt-1 through 6 is totally garbled. It takes up
half the screen and flickers. The same goes for the shutdown sequence which is
but blurr on the screen; because the bootup sequence comes before XFree init
it looks as beautiful as ever, even with nvidia. Using "nv" instead of
"nvidia" driver fixes the problem.
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2.run used to build kernel module with
kernel-source-2.4.21-6mdk. Ti-4200 64MB.
