If you use potato with its default installation kernel, chances are you're in "framebuffer" mode - basically text mode is faked by drawing glyphs in graphics mode.

To get my favorite text mode resolution I had to recompile my own kernel for potato. -- Ian Zimmerman Lightbinders, Inc. 2325 3rd Street #324, San Francisco, California 94107
