Hello,
I just installed OpenBSD 6.4 on my Ultra 45.
right before completing the boot process and right before showing the
login prompt the VGA console does a reset, the screen becomes black and
when it appears again the character size is so tiny you can barely see
it and the text console is kind of replicated 6 times in a row on the
same screen. I would post a picture but I think it's not allowed. I can
blindly log in as root on the console and launching startx opens X11
which works, anyway the terminal console is really unusable like this.
Is there a way that I can fix this issue ?
on 6.3 this did not happen.
these are the most significant messages from dmesg they could be related
to the problem:
radeon_cp: Failed to load firmware "radeon/R300_cp.bin"
