Some special boot time options? > CONFIG_FB=y > CONFIG_FB_VESA=y > CONFIG_VIDEO_SELECT=y > CONFIG_FB_MATROX=y Are you sure that your boot messages are directed to the matroxfb and not to the vesa? In the past keyword for selecting matroxfb options was 'video=matrox:...', while now it is 'video=matroxfb:...', so you may have to modify your lilo.conf line (and do not ask me why these two letters were added if we have video= prefix... I do not know). Best regards, Petr Vandrovec vandrove@vc.cvut.cz
