I'm trying to get a SiliconMotion chip working with an ARM9. I'm
currently out of luck, because  the X-Server somehow kills my entire
system - even commands over JTAG fail after a certain point. I'm still
not ruling out hardware issues, because Xorg -probeonly causes the
same behaviour.
I will try the framebuffer on another hardware with fb next week. Any
special tweakings needed?

Cheers,

Gernot
