Did you turn on the ‘framebuffer console’ in the menuconfig? (device drivers / graphics support / console display driver support / framebuffer console support) And you need to press Alt+F2 (or F3, F4,..) to switch to frame buffer console on the LCD. Hope this was the case.. Chan

I'm playing with orpsocv2 on the Digilent Atlys. I've been following the excellent orpsocv2 tutorial by Sven Andersson over at http://www.rte.se/blog/blogg-modesty-corex/using-orpsoc. I've got it working using u-boot to load applications. I've also got Jonas Bonn's Linux (git clone git://git.openrisc.net/jonas/linux) booting on my atlys board. It presents a serial console. Now I'd like to turn on the vga framebuffer driver to output to the HDMI port on the Atlys board (like Stefan Kristiansson shows on http://www.chokladfabriken.org/projects/orpsoc-atlys/news). I tried downloading Stefan's Linux repo, but it doesn't seem to have framebuffer support turned on (e.g., there's no defconfig for atlys, no atlys.dts with fb0 defined, etc.). I tried manually editing the files and rerunning "make menuconfig;make" to get framebuffer support, but the resulting vmlinux still doesn't enable the framebuffer. I still only have serial console support. Is there an openrisc linux repo somewhere that has all of the relevant updates/settings for enabling framebuffer console support on atlys? Thanks, Daniel
