Hi, Revisiting the issue below, it there a convinient way to use the FB in barebox without creating a flicker on the LCD in the transition from Barebox to the kernel? Thanks, Boaz.

Do you know of some way to fix this (a patch for the freescale kernel maybe)?A simple way to check whether this is the problems is to just disable the framebuffer in the kernel build, and make sure that you can boot again. Then, the fix for this problem is to move the request_irq() call to the end of the .probe routine. You should not expect any kind of support from Freescale for their released Linux kernels. baruchOn Tue, 2011-03-08 at 16:35 +1100, Marc Reilly wrote:On Tuesday, March 08, 2011 03:35:10 am Boaz Ben-David wrote:Hi, When using the iMX35 freescale 3stack we are having some issues with the FB driver. On device boot we enable the fb using "fb0.enable=1" and then try to boot the kernel from nand. The problem is that after the kernel is loaded to RAM and extracted the board hangs. If we do not init the fb0 device but simply boot the kernel it works fine. Trying "fb0.enable=0" before booting also did not help. Did anyone encounter this issue yet or are we doing something wrong?Are you using the freescale kernel? It doesn't handle loading the IPU driver if the IPU has been enabled previously.. (an IRQ fires before all the driver structures have been initialized and crashes) Cheers, Marc --
