Package: linux-2.6 Version: 2.6.15-1 Severity: grave Hah, this is special. So I tried to upgrade my kernel in order to test bug #347186, and I can't mount my /usr partition due to missing symbols in xfs.ko: $ nm -u /lib/modules/2.6.15-1-alpha-generic/kernel/fs/xfs/xfs.ko |grep cmpx

Bug#347186: linux-image-2.6.14-2-alpha-generic: garbled Matrox framebuffer

l vidcard access; but I guess that's the fbdev driver, anyway. So the real target for all of this was to get matroxfb working to the point of running bterm successfully from the debian installer; and even with fbcon working, in 2.6.14 running bterm or fbi gives me a whole lot of nothing (console blanks, nothing gets displayed). I'll give this another try with 2.6.15 once I've got my /usr partition mounting again. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.

riosity? This doesn't seem like a temporary problem; I think this is an issue that will be just as applicable for etch+1 as it is for etch, and I think we should be honest about that. I also think it's within the realm of reason for us to decide that source for things like firmware, f
