Meanwhile I tried the DVD myself and it worked with my
XVR-500.
I looked at the kernel image on the DVD and it has all the
necessary PCI device IDs to match your card.
So something isn't working right.
I've built a test kernel for you to netboot that should
provide some more bootup messages than you're getting
now. Please find it at:
http://vger.kernel.org/~davem/xvr600_test.img
When netbooted it should print something like:
e3d: Found device at /pci.....
when it detects your graphics card.
And then it should say something like:
fbcon: e3d (fb0) is primary device
Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 210x65
If it prints all of that and you still don't get a console
then the framebuffer is mapped on XVR-600/XVR-1200 chips
different than it is on XVR-500 chips and I'll have to
figure that out. It could take a week or so to fix this
in that case.
Thanks.
