Sure it's easy - there is even no need for a calculator, you can just can have a look into the detect-resolution script and use the numbers from there. But that's not the point; the point is that the script should understand the parameters the kernel understands. If it doesn't, you don't know why it's not working and one has to search and read scripts to find the reason why it doesn't work. BTW: I didn't report this for lilo because I didn't test it with lilo. -- Michael Reinsch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://mr.uue.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------
