I don't want to disable KMS, I want to disable framebuffer, and I simply cannot do so with the i915 driver enabled... period. end of story. It is automatically enable in make menuconfig. The option is "-*-" rather than [*]. I've tried "nofb" in the lilo append line, and manually unsetting all the FB_CONFIG* parameters in .config with vim and rebuilding, but it still comes up in framebuffer mode. I'll have to wait for the next kernel updates, I suppose. I don't want to play with ~x86. -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org>
