 Christos - all my machines have their consoles on some sort of fb and =20=
 
 almost all have additional framebuffer devices which may or may not be =20=
 
 set up by OF.
 I think, after reading Havards replies, the problem is not so much any =20=
 
 of the fb drivers but the sparc64 code which figures out where the =20
 console is, apparently the case where the console gets temporarily =20
 switched to ttya when no keyboard is present confuses the living hell =20=
 
 out of it.
 That's why I asked what happens with the console explicitly set to ttya.
