I had this problem with a Trident CyberBladei1 card on a machine and inserted "tridentfb" into /etc/hotplug/blacklist" to prevent the rc.sysinit from loading the tridentfb driver. Bill Nottingham says that sysinit shouldn't be inserting everything, and I'm inclined to agree that this is a bug. There is a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file that should be eliminated/moved/used instead of /etc/hotplug/blacklist (the formats are incompatible apparently). DaveJ pointed out that most of the framebuffer drivers are old and decrepit and may have some misfeatures. Add your video driver to /etc/hotplug/blacklist and things might work again. -- G.Wolfe Woodbury `- -' RHCT U The Line Eater is a boojum!
