I believe that this is a regression because I was unable to reproduce this bug in 2.6.25.4-rt5 nor 2.6.24, The version in question is 2.6.26-rt9. 1) Does anybody know which git commit destabilized the framebuffer? 2) Is there a way to fix this or is a fix planned for .28 ? I can't fix this myself because I have too much homework to spend time kernel hacking. Also, debugging might be cumbersome due to lack of (a) serial port(s). -- Andrey Vul A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
