Hi,
right now, I try to get okl4 working inside my neo1973 device. After
some pre-work and testing, I got the kernel booting and it's possible to
conenct to the serial interface via the debug-board, so I can use the
normal busybox-features aso.
Also it's possible to get something to the fb ..
i.e. cat /bin/busybox >/dev/fb0
The question is now, what do I need to do, to get the console using the
fb. Normally, I would use the kernel-parameter "vga=0x301" inside the
bootloader (in this case - u-boot), so the kernel would automatically
put his output to the framebuffer (if he has FB-support enabled inside
the kernel). After trying this, I realized, that my parameter does not
reach the kernel
cat /proc/cmdline
produces:
igms_name=ramdisk
And nothing with my "vga=0x301".
Thanks in advance.
Dennis
