cirrusfb not working?

Hi,

I was trying a few days ago to boot a recent 2.6 kernel on my Amiga 3000.

From what I found online, in order to get a framebuffer display from my Picasso IV, I needed to use the cirrusfb driver to the kernel which replaced the older clgen driver (In latest 2.6 kernels).

I tried stuff like:

amiboot -k vmlinuz video=cirrusfb:

No matter what I append to the video parameter, I can never get a display from the graphics card, it always comes up from the native ECS. Kernel messages say that a cirrusfb supported card was found. I was then told that cirrusfb does not work as expected, so any information on that?

What eventually worked somehow, was: video=amifb:off, which produced a display from the Picasso, but was full of garbage.

Thanks,
Emmanuel
