After updating from 2.6.13-rc4-mm1 to 2.6.14-rc1-mm1 I see no cursor on my console.Me too, 2.6.14-rc1-git4. Didn't try any kernel before with framebuffer, sorry. No fb options on the kernel command line.Can you try reversing this particular diff? http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blobdiff_plain;h=af99ea96012ec72ef57fd36655a6d8aaa22e809e;hp=30f80c23f934bb0a76719232f492153fc7cca00a Tony--- 30f80c23f934bb0a76719232f492153fc7cca00a +++ af99ea96012ec72ef57fd36655a6d8aaa22e809e^^^ Which file??
