fbterm does not work on radeonfb unfortunately. The text is garbled (truncated) and unreadable both in normal and portrait mode. I've tried different fonts, but this doesn't help.

Posted on Dec 15, 2010 by Massive CamelMust be a font issue. fbterm -v -s 14 -a -n "Terminus" works fine. All other OpenType and TrueType monospace-fonts are garbled.

Posted on Dec 18, 2010 by Happy HorseThere isn't a radeonfb enabled linux system for me to debug this issue :(
But it is NOT a font issue. I guess text will be rendered correctly with antialias disabled TrueType fonts.
