Maybe Debian is correct not to include this in the stable default

Bah, just to clear something up; I mean you don't want XFree to eschew
its own drivers and use the kernel framebuffer instead.

Generic way is to append "vga=ask" to your kernel params and type "scan" when
it asks you for the screen mode. Then you just pick the one you like :)

Hello,
Recently found a table telling all those numbers. Well, with
a custom kernel having vesafb enabled and using a Geforce2Go,
i am using a simple
vga=791
This opens my console to 1024x768 pixels and works very well.
Maybe this helps a little bit,
Timo

What color depth? See

a table of the modes.

It exists a FrameBuffer-HOWTO ( in the /usr/doc/HOWTO/en-txt/ in
the Debian GNU/Linux system)
To use framebuffer on console, you have to recompile your kernel with
experimental stuffs (activate-> Code maturity level options -> Prompt
for experimental stuffs).

Should have digged further!
In linux/drivers/video/modedb.c there is an array of struct fb_videomode
which lists the video modes that are supported by tdfx through modedb.
Luckily [EMAIL PROTECTED] is compiled right in and works beautifully, too.

Okay, that worked just fine. Well, the fonts ended up a little smaller
than I wanted, but I figured out a value that I liked.
