does /dev/fb0 exist? if it doesn't, create it. BTW: only few framebuffer drivers support on-the-fly configuring with 'fbset'. AFAIK, for example 3dfx cards (?)... build your kernel with the driver (built into the kernel). if you don't find a driver for your card, use VESA Framebuffer and configure it via kernel parameters.. moritz -- /* Moritz Schulte <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * http://hp9001.fh-bielefeld.de/~moritz/ * PGP-Key available, encrypted Mail is welcome. */
