istr we've seen other reports of recent problems with vga=, but I don't
recall the outcome?

Thanks.

A similar bug is 10766 reported on Nvidia Geforce MX 440. I was not able to
reproduce it on cards I have. I will try more.

I was promised to borrow a laptop with GeForce MX 4x0 on board to test.

I am not able to reproduce it on Ubuntu 8.04 with grub bootloader,
AMD 690V chipset (aka ATI X1200) and AMD X2 4400+, linux 2.6.26-rc5
(the same version as used in reporter's config), 2GB RAM.

I got a lot of warnings about pci and usb quirks around the vesafb switching
which are missing in the original report, like these:

pci 0000:01:05.0: calling quirk_cardbus_legacy+0x0/0x1d
pci 0000:01:05.0: calling quirk_usb_early_handoff+0x0/0x3c8
pci 0000:01:05.0: calling pci_fixup_video+0x0/0xaf
pci 0000:01:05.0: Boot video device

Why are the cardbus/usb quirks called on the video device? The other
bug's reporter has written that the bug happens only if he leaves an USB
memory stick (flash drive) in the computer. When the stick is removed, 
there is no error.

I wonder if it may be an issue something completely unrelated to the vesa driver.

Krzysztof

Comment 5 born.into.silence 2008-07-26 16:25:51 UTC
Hello

Someone told me to remove one of the memory sticks and it works now : acpi, vesa, and xorg.

The bugreport can be closed.
Comment 6 born.into.silence 2008-07-26 16:27:58 UTC
The memory sticks were from different manufacturers and were running at different frequencies.

Is this problem kernel-related ?
