Subject: [RFC PATCH 3/3] cdrom: Disable modesetting in text mode
Date: Sun, 27 Apr 2025 17:15:24 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250427171524.324778-3-michael.tremer@ipfire.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250427171524.324778-1-michael.tremer@ipfire.org>

This is just a precaution for users which have broken graphics. This
way, the kernel should keep the simple VGA text console without actually
switching on high resolutions.
