Modern PCI-E videocards are not recognized by the old linux framebuffer subsystem and they solely can be managed by the new KMS frame buffer that doesn't work properly on Power Architecture. Anyway, YDL Powerstation can fallback to use the old OpenFirmware frame buffer. KMS porting to Power Architecture machines with PCIE is it only an exercise or someone is also able to test them? Because i can understand that the userbase is non-existent and the dri-developers don't have these "rare" machines.
