page to coordinate troubleshooting of x60 vga initialition issues

  • Video does not ever init on certain kernels when booting coreboot with neither a vgabios optionrom nor nativevga

ToDo's for fchmmr:

  • Try kernels > 3.8 and < 3.11 while using a serial console and coreboot rom from master without a vgabios optionrom.
  • Try the latest kernel from kernel.org
  • Try a kernel newer than one that does not init gfx, and has had 17fec8a08698bcab98788e1e89f5b8e7502ababdreverted.
