Framebuffer-supported video card?????
and what would they be?? I have a simple and very very common (its in
every Intel Motherboard) SiS 6326 AGP 8M video Accelerater video chip,
and ever since someone started this framebuffer kernel stuff If I do a
clean install from .iso from 7.2beta2 it allows you to do a customized
install and you could un-select the kernel-fb. Now with 7.2 beta3 you
can't even do that. and in every instance in my install log, it shows
that framebuffering was attempted but video card didn't "like" it. thats
a quote from the log file. Could someone tell me why framebuffering is
used???? Is it just for Aurora, (apparently)
if so can we skip it in the future????
