Hello all, I have been trying to use the savagefb driver for a VIA ProSavage PN133T VT8606 TwisterT the module gets loaded but the frame buffer doesn't get created.
The kernel log shows: Jan 14 19:41:46 fig kernel: savagefb: mapped io at f8b25000 Jan 14 19:41:46 fig kernel: savagefb: probed videoram: 32768k Jan 14 19:41:46 fig kernel: savagefb: Detected current MCLK value of 14 MHz Jan 14 19:41:46 fig kernel: savagefb: frame buffer in use Question 1: Is the chipset supported? Question 2: The vesa driver is already included in the kernel can the savage driver work along side it, like the matrox driver? From the last line is suspect not. Question 3: What are the steps that would be required to get it working, ie how does one debug a kernel module. I've updated the savagefb-0.4.0-linux-2.4.21-rc2.patch.bz2 patch for the 2.4.23 and 2.4.24 kernels. I think that it is okay but is a bit badly behaved with the bootsplash-3.0.7-2.4.24.diff.bz2 patch. Any ideas on how to get this working? Thanks, Duncan
