Thank you for your answer! But I don't really get it working. If have a resolution 1024x768 althrough WXGA (1280x800) were possible. I reached this solution on my console (bash) by adding vga=0x316 to my grub config file menu.lst. I also tried 0x307 but it don't works: "unknown resolution". Playing with fbset has no effect. Console-tools seem to be useless for me because they should not influence my fb, should they? What can I do? Kay -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
