Hi,
I changed my GeForce FX 5200 128MB to another GeForce FX5200 but
with 256MB of memory, and something had been wrong. At boot, framebuffer
return a error:
vesafb: probe of vesafb0 failed with error -6
I found another one with same error.
The old card was AGP revision 2.0, this new card is AGP revision 3.0.
Is framebuffer incompatible with this review?
Regards,
Olavo.

same error here (Linux chatPotte 2.6.8.1 #2 SMP Thu Sep 16 06:38:51 CEST

I never tried with a newer kernel... I could do that during this week if
you want.
I only managed to get a framebuffer with the vga driver :-/
I have the same card but sold in an ASUS box.
