That should give us enough extra > output to see where it's hanging. Just a quick status. I used HEAD from mainline today as it included all my sparc patches. [Initially it oopsed but this was unrelated]. After enabling all ATYFB related options in the config I could see that it got probed and I got output on the screen. There is a few seconds period with no output. Then I get output where all text are displayed in four coloums, where two of the coloums are copies. I can see the cursor is rapidly moving around on the screen - or at least it looks like a cursor. I tried to change resolution like this: prom> setenv output-device=screen:x1024x768x70 prom> reset-all I then used: prom> cd /pci/SUNW,m64B prom> .properties This showed that the new resolution had been stored. But this had no effect on he output :-( Anyway. I can see that we suceed callign the setup function that David fixes. And what I see now is most likely a driver issue. For now I will just accept that I need to use serial. I may revist this later.
