There is a vesafb-tng (the next generation) on Gentoo. I applied it to my 2.6.7; it allows, among other things, to load the vesafb driver as a module and to specify resolutions with the "usual" (widthxheight-bitdepth@refresh) syntax. On my video card (GeForce2 Go) it doesn't seem to work very well though. -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta Can't you see It all makes perfect sense Expressed in dollar and cents Pounds shillings and pence (Roger Waters) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
