(!) DirectFB/Matrox: Can't find device in `/proc/bus/pci'!


For some reason the card is not detected. I need to see /proc/bus/pci/devices and lspci -n.


Hi

as previously posted i finally was able to make DFB work on my PPC RS6000 (PReP) by adding disable-module=matrox in /etc/directfbrc as suggested by Andreas. I was also planning to test GTKDFB on my PPC to try to make the graphical debian installer (http://wiki.debian.org/?DebianInstallerGUIBuild) run on PPC architectures too (ATM only i386 works fine ). I had to give up due to lack of time, but some people at [EMAIL PROTECTED] are working on this. I also suggested to ask for help to this ML since it seems to me the most appropriate place to ask for questions about GTKDFB.

ciao

ps

by the way, what are the correct boot parameters that have to be passed to the kernel on PPC to make it boot in framebuffer mode 640x480x16? On i 386 we use video=vesa:ywrap,mtrr vga=788 but and on PPC someone (http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2005/10/msg01151.html) suggested

video=radeonfb:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

shall be used: any help on this will be very appreciated.
