radeonfb: only 80x25
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, today I updated to linux 2.6.11-rc4 because I had problems with linux-wlan-ng (which are solved now :-) ). But now I only have 80x25 virtual console :-( Ben, I saw in the 2.6.11-rc4 changelog that you updated the radeonfb. Does this have something to do with my problem? I have append="video=radeonfb:1024x786-32" in my /etc/yaboot.conf and this was working until 2.6.10.
