I've just installed Woody r1. (At least I was connected to an apt-source on the net while installing and it downloaded a lot, so I assume it's r1).
I've been using Redhat 7.3 and SuSE 7.3 before that, and I've been using framebuffer support for my console sessions (Alt-F1, etc). I get my 1024x768 display (128x48 text) just fine. During install of Debian, there was a question about using framebuffer for consoles, and I believe the answer was 'yes' (whatever it was, I thought it made sense at the time). Now, I boot to a GUI, but my consoles are unreadable. They're simply blank as installed. If I add "vga=791" to lilo.conf, I get full-screen scrambled versions of some of my GUI screen. I don't even know where to start. Is this an X86 problem, a Debian specific issue, what was installed to do with "framebuffers" by Debian I might need to look at, unscrew, uninstall, re-install? Any pointers would be helpful. Thanks in advance. Bret -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
