Hi Ron,
The Geode frame buffer driver is turned on the .config file SLES 10 SP1 kernel that I have and I am not sure why I cannot see anything on the screen.
One more thing in the Config.lb file for db800, the pci device id corresponding to this device has been turned off does that make a difference. I thought this should be set only when VGA ROM is present and CONFIG_CONSOLE_VGA and CONFIG_PCI_ROM_RUN is set ? Regards, Phani On Wed, Mar 5, 2008 at 6:03 PM, ron minnich rminnich@gmail.com wrote:

Let me recheck if the geodelx frame buffer is already patched or not. I think it was patched because X was working for with the commerial BIOS.
X could be using the VESA driver. There is also an Xorg driver for the geodelx. Neither depend on kernel framebuffer.
can someone remind me:do we need a special VSA to make the Linux geode lx framebuffer driver work?
Phani, do you want my .config that works with linux and brings up the frame buffer? it is for 2.6.24.2
