Hi, on my potato system I used the kernel image debian brought to me ... but I had problems with loading the frame-buffer module so that I can get a screen resolution and not this little square where I can hardly read anything ... but that did not work because from the kernel documentation I have got that it must not be configured as module.
So things have changed I thought and installed on my woody system the kernel-image 2.2.20 ... I was now able to load the frame-buffer module (modconf and installation succeeded) ... but typing VGA=791 on my boot prompt leaves the screen black and blank. So I have to recompile the kernel by myself, change the entries for the video modes in the kernel configuration file and now I can use VGA=791. What I am wondering now is: a) is there anybody out there who could enable this feature without recompiling the kernel again b) am I missing something c) is everybody out there using a screen with "1024x768" and only have a little square (something like 800x200) hardly readable d) why isn't the kernel image setup with frame-buffer support?
