kernel .config that created the faulty kernel
This .config creates my kernel. It is the same I always used without
experiencing troubles. I do make oldconfig all the time before an update.
You enable framebuffer but... # CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE is not set Which would explain why its invisible. Don't know why it worked before. That works indeed. Thanks. However, I'm really using that configuration for ages now. Imported it from RedHat9 and used through many different kernel versions. Strange. Stephan |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040603 Description of problem: since I did the upgrade to 2.6.6-1.435 (from the previous 2.6.6-1.427custom) and compiled my new kernel using my old .config (after doing make oldconfig of course) all the non-graphic ttys are black on black. They still work so I can enter commands, but I can't see anything. I attach my .config. The only thing I did in that time was the kernel upgrade so it must have something to do with it. After booting, you can shortly see the tty and when kdm kicks in, they disappear and don't come back. Stephan Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.6-1.435custom How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. compile kernel 2. boot it (runleven 5) 3. switch to tty and see nothing Actual Results: If I try to switch to a non-graphic tty, I can't see anything. It's possible to enter commands though. Expected Results: Visible ttys Additional info: Booting the distri-kernel 2.6.6-1.435 the problem doesn't exist.
