[microblaze-uclinux] Framebuffer console



Hi,

    I selected frame buffer console (fbcon) driver in menuconfig. I know the video controller works and the Xilinx frame buffer compiled in. But there is nothing on the TFT display. I see the following during bootup:

Console: colour dummy device 80x25

    I think this implies the dummy console is loaded instead of fbcon. Indeed I got the following when I cat /sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon1/name:

(S) dummy device

    BTW I tried setting console=tty, tty0 and ttyp1 in commandline and still got the same results. I believe the reason for this is fbcon not properly loaded for some reason. Or could it be some kind of configuration strings not set correctly? In any case, please let me know if you have any suggestion.

Thanks,

Simon
