good idea. someone else suggested playing with the 'vga' LILO boot option. however, no matter what i set it to (normal, ext, or any of the 'ask' options), it still does the same thing. default under /etc/lilo.conf is 'normal', which is 80x25, which should be right for the console, no? > I remember something about 'video=vga16', but I could be wrong hm, i don't see a 'video' option. maybe you were thinking of 'vga'. thanks, </nori> -- .~. nori @ sccs.swarthmore.edu /V\ http://www.sccs.swarthmore.edu/~nori/jnl/ // \\ @ maenad.net /( )\ www.maenad.net ^`~'^ get my (*new*) key here: http://www.maenad.net/geek/gpg/7ede5499.asc (please *remove* old key 11e031f1!) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
