I've a Riva TNT2 card. I use frame buffers with both. With 2.4, there is a nVidia Riva support, not with 2.2. I've a big display and I use a resolution of 1024 x 768. With 2.2, it is unaccelerated but I cat set all the VT the same resolution at once with 'vga=0x318' in an append line of lilo of with grub. With 2.4, the only way I've found is to use fbset in a start script, unfortunately, this does not switch all the VT ay once ; especially the screen with no login (i.e. the syslog I redirect to tty12). Is there a mean to switch all the VT to the same resolution when the nVidia Riva frame buffer is activated. ------------ Regards Jean-Luc
