5.1_RC1 on VAXstation 3100 with mono framebuffer



Hi,

I've been trying 5.1_RC1 on my VAXstation 3100 (KA42-A) and it's
working OK with a serial console but doesn't work with the on-board
mono framebuffer. When switched to the framebuffer, I get output up to
the point when the kernel has loaded then the screen goes blank. I
suspect there is a clue in the following messages I see when using the
serial console:

smg0 at vsbus0 csr 0x200f0000 vec 104 ipl 17 maskbit 3
smg0: could not find 8x15 font

Looking at the GENERIC kernel config, I see that option FONT_QVSS8x15
is enabled, so I guess it shouldn't be missing. Any suggestions? 

George
