Description MM 2010-08-03 15:24:21 UTC
I'm submitting this as a bug here because I don't know if the problem during
the bootup process is X driver related or Kernel related.

When using Radeon KMS in 2.6.35, also this occurs in the previous 2.6x kernels
that have KSM support, when the kernel first boots for 1-2 seconds you see the
boot messages appear at 640x480 then the screen goes blank/black for a second,
then the framebuffer kicks in.

I'm hoping that something can be done, that as soon as the kernel boots you are
placed immediately in the framebuffer mode, just like you'd typically get
without KMS just running Framebuffer at startup.

Seeing 640x480 text going across the screen then getting a blank screen then
finally getting framebuffer does not look like a very clean looking startup, it
actually looks like this whole process does not work properly this way.


THANKS
