Are you sure you're enabling ATYFB video support in your kernel? That's a common error when folks build their own kernels.
Success! I used the later patch [0] and the config file from debian 2.6.18-1-sparc64 as mentioned by Jurij[1]
which includes - hopefully relevant ;) CONFIG_FB_ATY128=y CONFIG_FB_ATY=y CONFIG_FB_ATY_CT=y # CONFIG_FB_ATY_GENERIC_LCD is not set CONFIG_FB_ATY_GX=y Using LCD Benq FP767 here, I could only get it it to boot this way: boot:mylinux18 video=atyfb:off which is what I need as it also gets rid of those pesky red dots ;) I am happy to report anything else that might assist... thanks to David for the patches and thanks to Jurij for guidance, jim [0] http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-sparc&m=116120447318793&w=2 [1] http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-sparc&m=116120045100433&w=2 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
