Works here, Sandpoint X3B w/ 7410 or 8240 and Matrox Millenium I Rev. B. Enable VT support, console on VT, conswitchp is set properly in linuxppc_2_4_devel. Perhaps you aren't using a video driver capable of doing full initialization? Most PeeCee card drivers don't. Does it say that it is switching console during boot? -- Matt Porter MontaVista Software, Inc. mporter at mvista.com ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
