I found that if I load the fbcon module (or compile it in) then something happens to my console, but it still doesn't show up on my TV. My TV continues to display X Windows, even when I do Control-Alt-F1. The VGA monitor display gets all messed up: it shows each line of text starting a bit to the right of the previous line, and it is frozen like this. Having the console on vesafb or vga16fb on my VGA monitor works fine. Does anyone else have any suggestions? Does anyone else have this working? If so, please post kernel version, ivtv version and relevant parts of kernel config (e.g. grep FRAME .config and grep _FB .config). What kernel command line is used (cat /proc/cmdline)?
