https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=261928 Bug ID: 261928 Summary: drm-kmod / vt newcons: Loading the drm-kmod driver creates a gap in the vt newcons scrollback buffer Product: Base System Version: Unspecified Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: kern Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: sblachmann@gmail.com When the drm-kmod driver (i915kms, radeonkms, amdgpu) is kldloaded, a big gap in the vt newcons scrollback buffer is being created. There are almost a screenful of blank lines being inserted when the screen is being resized. This does not create an impression of careful programming, in particular when also taking into consideration that old output is being overwritten at (possibly random) positions (see PR261641: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=261641 ). Instead of this behavior, the output should just be continued where the current printing position in the console was before loading the drm-kmod driver. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
