Meanwhile I tried the DVD myself and it worked with my XVR-500. I looked at the kernel image on the DVD and it has all the necessary PCI device IDs to match your card. So something isn't working right. I've built a test kernel for you to netboot that should provide some more bootup messages than you're getting now. Please find it at: http://vger.kernel.org/~davem/xvr600_test.img When netbooted it should print something like: e3d: Found device at /pci..... when it detects your graphics card. And then it should say something like: fbcon: e3d (fb0) is primary device Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 210x65 If it prints all of that and you still don't get a console then the framebuffer is mapped on XVR-600/XVR-1200 chips different than it is on XVR-500 chips and I'll have to figure that out. It could take a week or so to fix this in that case.
