Description Gustavo Zacarias (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-01-05 11:47:34 UTC
Sun Blade 100/150 workstation framebuffers won't work properly on 2.6 kernels.
Please apply to gentoo-sources-2.6.15+, we'll keyword ~sparc with some testing afterwards.
Thanks.

FYI, this is fixed in the vanilla 2.6.14.6 kernel (yet to be folded into genpatches at the time of writing).

It also went into what will become 2.6.15.1 and i prefer the 2.6.15 series since the 2.6.14 series has other issues that aren't so easily patched (bbc_envctrl eats cpu, the alsa driver isn't fixed, v240 doesn't work right and many many others).

Fixed in gentoo-sources-2.6.15-r1
