[Bug 57390] Re: Framebuffer does not work on macbook pro

[Jon]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.15-26-686
  
  I cant seem to get a framebuffer to work during boot on my macbook pro.
  This means I cant use upower or splashy when booting.
  
  When i set vga=795 the screen basically goes blank until gdm starts. I
  am using the 15" version - i have to use lilo not grub to boot because
  grub is not supported on my machine.
  
  Just found a patch that should get this working:
