In /etc/lilo.conf, in the 'image =' entry for your kernel, put: append = "video=vga16:off" vga = 1 This should give you 80x50 text mode and prevent the kernel from setting it back to the annoying framebuffer text mode. Don't forget to run /sbin/lilo. Krum -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
