Hi all,

i'm using a PVR350 and I tried to get the console on the fb-output.
I tried con2fb. It don't work.

You should use the xdriver:

http://dl.ivtvdriver.org/xdriver

I'm pretty sure that contains some instructions, if you can't figure it
out from those, write again.

Bye, Lucas

Oops, I probably misunderstood console for X11. I'm not sure how to get
the actual boot console onto the pvr350's framebuffer. I think kevin
thayter mention once that he managed to pull it off, but I don't know
the details for that, sorry.

Bye, Lucas
