[LinuxBIOS] Xvesa on LinuxBIOS - coreboot

25 Feb 2007


      Hi guys,
I want place Xvesa (kdrive) inside BIOS, to get graphic mode.
First I compiled Xvesa with uclibc, created a rootfs tree with it and
compiled the kernel with it inside (CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE pointing
to this directory).
Then created a GRUB option to call this kernel image. Using the
original BIOS (commercial) it goes fine. I got graphic mode running
correctly from this 1.7MB kernel image (initramfs as final rootfs). It
will fit in a 2MB flash.
After I compiled LinuxBIOS with the original VGA BIOS ROM attached and
filo as payload. LinuxBIOS started with VGA text mode and FILO call
the GRUB correctly.
GRUB start my kernel image but graphic mode don't start. I get this
error message:
"Interrupt pointer (seg 32 off 0) doesn't point at ROM"
This error message is from vm86.c:
http://webcvs.freedesktop.org/xserver/xserver/hw/kdrive/vesa/vm86.c?revision...
...
From this source I think the interrupt pointer need point to somewhere
after 0xC0000 segment, but it is pointing to wrong place (segment
0x32).
I don't know why it is occuring with LinuxBIOS. All appear go fine,
but just the Interrupt Pointer is wrong.
There is someone running X Server (with Driver "vesa" on X config)?
I verified this error occur with default X Server as with Xvesa.
Cheers,
Alan
P.S.: I am sending the serial console log attached, maybe it give some help.
