I did have VGA console be the default, and installed clgenfb as a module.
Is there a way to rmmod the module later?
The colors are wrong in X whit >8bit and the console is slow with fbcon :)
I haven't tried removing it, but as far as I know, support for that still
isn't there.  I tended to use Xbh rather than XFBDev for my X server,
because Xbh it at least had some acceleration in it.  But I am still using
3.3.6 (or something like that) for X.  I don't know if Xbh is downloadable
from anywhere these days, but I had planned on playing with X once 2.4.x
is relatively stable on my machine.  What version of X do people run on
the PowerStack these days (if at all)?
I run 4.1.0 and it appears to be usable with "fbdev" as driver. It
should be faster than3.3.6.
There must be a copy of Xbh somewhere, but it segfaulted for me last
time I tried it (and removed it from the distro ;). Maybe the hardware
didnt match :)
I could put it in pneguinppc.org if needed.
