I am going to verify it doesn't happen with ath_hal. it may be imposible to run dvswitch app wihtout nvidia, dvswitch needs "Anything that supports Xv (video extension) should work" which vesa seems not to.

00:12.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 7150M (rev a2)
The opensource xorg nv driver doesn't support that card:
(WW) NV: Ignoring unsupported device 0x10de0531 (GeForce 7150M) at 00@00:12:0

I may be able to get a headless version or something just to try to trigger this bug.

also: /etc/modules is not a good place to load netconsole because eth0 isn't up yet, so it aborts.

I wrote a script to load it and the 2 apps:

sudo modprobe netconsole netconsole="@/,@192.168.1.155/"
dvswitch &
sleep 4
