- a precise description of the problem
I'm only able to see the first three lines of the kernel loading when using vesafb-tng.
The hole rest is completly scrambled across the screen.
- the model and manufacturer of your graphics board
ATI Technologies Inc., FireGL 5000
- the exact kernel version you are using (including patchset versions);
if you have applied the vesafb-tng patch manually, make sure you include
the version of the patch you used as well
linux-2.6.16_rc1-git3 (with gentpatches-2.6.16-pre)
- the output of `dmesg` (make sure the messages that are displayed during the
boot are not scrolled out of the log buffer!)
[need to reboot first!]
- the kernel command line parameters you are using in GRUB/LILO
kernel (hd0,1)/boot/kernel-2.6.16_rc1-git3-tng root=/dev/sda2 video=vesafb:640x480-32@60
- `cat /usr/src/.config | grep _FB`
