During my bootup, I get an error message that appears 8 times telling me something about a module that isn't loading. This is the message:

Code:

... can't load module rivafb
missing kernel or user mode driver rivafb
... can't load module rivafb
missing kernel or user mode driver rivafb
... can't load module rivafb
missing kernel or user mode driver rivafb
... can't load module rivafb

... can't load module rivafb

... can't load module rivafb
missing kernel or user mode driver rivafb
... can't load module rivafb
missing kernel or user mode driver rivafb
... can't load module rivafb
missing kernel or user mode driver rivafb


This only happens when I pass a video option in my grub.conf file. For example, if I pass

Code:
vga=0x317


to the kernel through grub, these error messages come up. If I don't pass any video options to the kernel, this message does not appear.

Any ideas?
