I've got a new-ish Imac with Debian 2.2r3 on it (kernel 2.4.19-pre2).
Everything's fine (X, mouse, etc...) but I can't work out how to
change the screen geometry.
I can set the mode correctly, what I'm trying to find out how to do
is change the width of the screen in a paricular mode (becau

Hi,
If I don't have my head too far up my arse yet, I think this might
interest quite a few people (ie. not me).

This is odd. I've compiled a selection of the latest 2.4 kernels
(including ben's) but the kernel is not looking for modules in the
correct place.
For example, when I run with ben's kernel I can't load dmasound and
doing modprobe -c produces output something like this:
