Unable to create Goos FB in UEFI mode
Hi, I've been trying to make this one work, but in vain, so far... Either using qemu or in real hardware, all failed when booting from UEFI.
From qemu's stdio I know that the boot has been completed successfuly, but it seems like fb-drv was unable to support current default mode from EFI Framebuffer boot (or it is trying to switch to some other mode, and failed?).
I was using standard ex_fb_spectrum_cc, with x86-fb.io, x86-fb.cfg and x86-legacy.devs, all loaded by grub2 as Multiboot2 and Module2 Everything was fine if booted using BIOS, but I haven't try on UEFI mode with CSM. Can you give me a hint of what to try next, please? Thanks in advance :-) -- FX. J. Adi Lima Trivision Studio

I believe this has nothing to do with UEFI vs. CSM but...
Can you give me a hint of what to try next, please?
fbdrv | Trying execution of ``set VBE mode'' using x86emu fbdrv | Found VESA BIOS version 3.0 fbdrv | OEM QEMU fbdrv | Scanning for 'best' possible mode: fbdrv | Trying to read DDC info fbdrv | DDC function not supported fbdrv | EDID not available (-19), finding best possible mode ... fbdrv | Mode: 0xf1 1024x768@32, RGB: 16(8):8(8):0(8) mode: bb fbdrv | Could not find suitable mode fbdrv | Failed to setup Framebuffer
It finds at least one possible mode but the auto selection is not very "smart" in this case. Please try to add -m 0xf1 to fb-drv command line in the x86-fb.cfg. Does this help? Adam
