uvesafb works nice.
Can anyone help me with the following?
Do any of you know how to make uvesafb (that replaces the old vesafb-tng) set to a pre-defined resolution?
What I mean is that with vesafb-tng I used to set like: "1440x900@60"
as fb settings and then, during boot, while kernel was loading, when it
passed through that "instruction", it would start using the console
with those fb settings and the penguins on the top. Then the penguins
disappear and I had a great text console @ 1440x900.
I remeber putting the exact string 1440x900@60 when building my kernel on the vesafb page. Now with uvesafb I don't get that option and my text console has a horrible resolution. A simple "lspci" will generate text long enough for a line to break.
Anyone?
Regards,
Saffi
