Hey everyone.
Ok so I've spent several hours searching google with as many searches as i could muster, and have tried numerous solutions, all of which to no avail.
I am running debian Sid 2.6.26-1-686 with an nVidia GeForce FX 5200
I hope I am placing this in the right place.
When I boot (grub-legacy-sid) and try to boot in a fb console, it never works, example: i try vga=791 and it gives me the ol' Screen not found [0x]317. Please select a video mode blah blah blah.
I checked the .config in the Kernel headers /usr/src/linux/.config, and FB_VESA=y and FB_UVESA=m.
I tried as many vga modes as I could, but could not get the framebuffer with the tux logo. I then tried to get uvesa working, by making sure klibc was installed and v86d and changed the kernel line to video=uvesafb:1024x768-32 also with no luck. I'm driving myself crazy trying to get this to work, any help would be much appreciated.
Oh yes... I am running the latest nVidia proprietary drivers [tsk i know], and also, I am showing a /dev/fb0 once i'm in X, which makes me think its something so simple I'm going to want to throw my keyboard off a cliff, but i will try to remain composed.
Thank you again.
-Robert

has anyone else seen this problem, does any one have ANY ideas? this is driving me crazy, as i've searched all over the internet and it seems it should work, and i've tried all of the fixes i could find.
ok i've got a little more information. I reinstalled the 2.6.24 kernel, and it works without a hitch. at this point i'm thinking maybe even though the config file in the source says FB_VESA=1, in the actual binary, it may have been left out, or its just not supported in the kernel anymore at all.
I don't know what to tell you. Your post caused me some worry, as I had a new motherboard coming with a built-in NVIDIA 7050. But, it worked with no problems. I guess sometime you're the windshield and...
Glad you got it working. Just FYI, I recall that when I added framebuffer support to my initram, I had to add the "fbcon" module as well as vesafb. Perhaps it must be added to you rkernel config as well.
