Hi everyone,

After installing v86d, I now have the following errors :

[ 2.018164] uvesafb: Getting VBE info block failed (eax=0x4f00, err=-3)
[ 2.018164] uvesafb: vbe_init() failed with -22
[ 2.018164] uvesafb: probe of uvesafb.0 failed with error -22

I suspect that "err=-3" still means "No such /sbin/v86d file". (From include/asm-generic/errno-base.h, I see #define ESRCH 3 /* No such process */)

I then checked to see in the initramfs file, /sbin/v86d exits though!

Another strange behavior is that unloading and reloading the uvesafb after the kernel has completed the booting stage works without errors.

I hope these hints help someone to solve this...
