[9fans] Problem of last update?

[9fans] Problem of last update?

[Pavel Klinkovsky]

Hi all,

the last update damaged my Plan9 installation.
After the logging in the rio should be started but it fails:

aux/vga: vgactlw: <type radeon>: bad VGA control message "type radeon"
...
rio: can't open display: initdisplay: /dev/draw/new: no frame buffer
init: rc exit status: rio 23: display open

I am running my Plan9 on ThinkPad T30.

Can anyone help, please?

Thanks.

Pavel

plan9.ini seems untouched by the last update...

This line is already present in the kernel configuration file.
Nevertheless, I rebuilt the kernel and the situation is a little bit
different...

aux/vga: short bios read 5 at c006f got -1

Well...

Oh, thanks. Going to try...

Does it mean they removed the support of Radeon card from the kernel
in last update?

i'm sorry.  that's to your kernel configuration
file *not* plan9.ini.  you'll need to compile a
kernel, too.  evidently my mind is wandering
today.

you need to add vgaradeon	+cur to your plan9.ini.
pull can be pretty antisocial.
