Subject: Kernel 'vga=' parameter wierdness
Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2006 07:43:32 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <43FC1624.8090607@qazi.f2s.com> (raw)

'Scuse my noobness, but when I supply the following parameter to the arguments 
  of my kernel through GRUB, I get an 'undefined mode' error:

vga=0164

But then, when the prompt comes up asking me which mode I want I type in:

0164

and I get the required mode!

What's happening?  On 2.4 kernel, I used to boot with vga=0x0a (which is the 
same mode as 0164) and it would boot fine.  Not anymore...

Help?
