André, I have an NVidia TNT2 and the following "vga=" values work for me: vga=794 (1600x1200) vga=791 (1280x1024) vga=788 (1024x768) vga=785 (800x600) Unfortunately I forgot the source of that info; probably either in kernel-source/Documentation or a header file somewhere. If these don't give you a penguin (and a sharper console font) I would guess either some necessary kernel compilation variable isn't set of you're not running the kernel image that you think you are (big help, right? :-)) Good luck, Steve Cooper
