Public bug reported: Binary package hint: linux-image
I quote from http://intr.overt.org/blog/?page_id=56: For non-X console mode, I use the vesafb driver. Dell were nice enough to include the native 1280×800 mode in the vesa mode list, as mode 865 - so if you configure lilo or grub (depending on your preference) to pass that to the kernel at boot time, you’ll get a native mode console. Ubuntu gutsy gibbon linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic won't set this mode. It complains that it is invalid and shows a menu when I have vga=0x865 in my kernel line in menu.lst. ** Affects: linux-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- vesafb refuses mode 865 for dell XPS m1330 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/201983 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
