I'm not sure I've understood your question, but when compiling my kernel I choose among others: CONFIG_FB=y CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y CONFIG_FB_VESA=y CONFIG_FB_SIS=y CONFIG_FB_SIS_300=y I use frambuffer in console appending to lilo video=sisfb:mode:1024x768x16,mem:12288 and when dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 asked me to use framebuffer I anwsered No. I hope I anwsered your question. > Thomas Many thanks, Flavio -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
