i compiled kernel-2.2.19 to set up framebuffer dev. during boot up kernel recognizes the card properly and sets the default mode with 80x30 console screen.
so far good, however, i would love to use some xxx x yyy console after all this is why i started this job on the first place. so i started to play with fbset and lilo append with some funny outcome: 1) lilo append: i tried several different cmdline versions eg.: video=aty128fb:mode:1024x768,... video=aty128fb:xres:1024,yres:768,.... or video=aty128fb:[EMAIL PROTECTED] as suggested in the kernel-2.4.4 documentation of aty128 with "vga=792" the kernel boots and sets fb again and again to the default 640x480... 2) fbset: i can set any mode defined in /etc/fb.modes and the console first looks OK and works OK in a pure "forward" mode but if i start editing or searching back in the history the cursor disappears and editing do not show up on the other hand, midnight commander works absolutely fine and looks gorgeous ;-) can anyone, please, tell me what could be the problem? thanks, imre
