(we plan various magic which requires it); unfortunately, while there is a fbdev driver for GX1 and LX, there isn't one yet for GX2 (ironic, isn't it; we have a driver for the older chip and the newer chip; sigh...). It is on the "must implement" list.
Jim,
A fb patch for the GX allready exists... See below and check the fbdev archives for the patch. Looks like it depends on some VSA magic though.
============================ A framebuffer driver for the display controller in AMD Geode GX processors (Geode GX533, Geode GX500 etc.). Tested at 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768 and 1280x1024 at 8, 16, and 24 bpp with both CRT and TFT. No accelerated features currently implemented and compression remains disabled.
This driver requires that the BIOS (or the SoftVG/Firmbase code in the BIOS) has created an appropriate virtual PCI header.
