It seemed to have died when I'd have expected it to be calling
via_pci_probe.  I assume something must be wrong with the table passed
into pci_module_init (in viafb_init) but I don't know what.  You might
want to compare the code there with the corresponding code in other
framebuffer drivers.

Pass.

Which kernel, and what did you change?  Just the Kconfig/Makefile
patches or the code?

I suspect the relevant difference is in the default video mode and in
particular the pixel format:

> mode "800x600-75"
> [...]
>    rgba 8/16,8/8,8/0,8/24

versus:

> mode "800x600-63"
> [...]
>    rgba 8/16,8/8,8/0,0/0

The former is ARGB, the latter is RGB32.

I wouldn't worry about it because anything that's interested in the
pixel format will set it anyway (and then you should get the same
accelerations regardless of the framebuffer driver you're using).

Regards,

Mark
