Yes, but what I was wondering about is if you got any display at all or were
relying on serial console or something? Is it possible to have display
without framebuffer?

My config etc. were working fine with 2.6.17-rc3, don't know when the atyfb
breakage occured, but in 2.6.17 it was broken...


Sorry I dont know about that breakage. All I know is:
(a) my patched 2.6.18 kernel is built with the debian config file
(b) my kernel would not boot at all, unless i used video:atyfb=off

The X (xorg) display works fine with that parameter but the console is weird. The only reason I tried that parameter is because of word association, it was known to me previously as a fix for some "red dots" issue, not for any other reason,
