Hi all you smart folk.
I've been trying to use the rivafb driver for my console, because I
like 1024x768 console resolution, but dislike the slowness of the vesa
framebuffer. Every time I start X and then switch to a text console, it
begins to mess up (my cursor turns into 2 purple dots) and if I try to
switch back to X the console is completely corrupted, forcing me to
reboot. Is there a conflict that makes it incorrect to use a
framebuffer text console and a different accelerated X console? Or is
this a bug in the memory handling of the rivafb that makes it conflict
with the NVidia accelerated stuff, OR can I not ask this here, because
I'm using the unlicensed NVidia kernel drivers?

Thanks!
