i've been trying to get the framebuffer to work but so far havent had any=20
luck ... i was unable to locate anyone who had a similar problem ...

Display controller: Hewlett-Packard Comp A4977A Visualize EG (rev 3).
machine is a C360 ... STI Console works great ...
tried 2.4.22-pa13 and 2.6.0-test9-pa5 with same exact results

the frame buffer draws all messed up however ... it only draws on the right=
=20
quarter of the screen ... the rest of the screen still contains the buffere=
d=20
video as found when the computer was booted (firmware output along with pal=
o=20
stuff) ... the colors are all skewed, basically white is purple along with =
a=20
few other bit inversions of some sort ...
also, each line is drawn incorrectly ... it's like each has been split in h=
alf=20
horizontally and then swapped ...
i can get X to load, but again it draws it all messed up in the right quart=
er=20
on the screen

i wish i could post a frame buffer grab, but fbgrab doesnt support 8bit and=
=20
fbscreenshot likes to segfault when writing the png to disk.

any ideas what i'm missing ?
or is the fbdriver the only way i can get X and running ?
