I have no idea what's going wrong then, and this kind of but I can't really work on without physical access to the system sorry. I really need to be in front of the computer having this issue and do a lot of test boots and debug statment frobbing to try and figure it out. > And the following messages, which didn't come out booting without atyfb: > > ioctl32(Xorg:4222): Unknown cmd fd(6) cmd(40584606){00} arg(fffd5a4c) on /dev/fb0 > ioctl32(Xorg:4222): Unknown cmd fd(6) cmd(40184600){00} arg(fffd5a54) on /dev/fb0 That's normal and comes from the X server. If the X server doesn't bring up your screen either, something is very very wrong with your graphics card which makes it even less likely that the kernel driver can be fixed too. Did this graphics card really ever work properly? What kernel version was that? - 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
