Thanks for answer Marc, sorry, the line i wrote was'nt correct. /proc/cmdline is: rw root=/dev/sda1 video=pm2fb:800x600-16
I tried your 'video'-parameter in lilo.conf at my computer at home: video=rivafb:mode:800x600-54 <- no effect, 640x480 video=rivafb:800x600-54 <- no effect, 640x480 video=rivafb:800x600-24 <- it works ! video=rivafb:800x600-32 <- it works ! i think the video-parameter do not check the mode-names in /etc/fb.modes. Is there a way to check what a framebuffer device i have to specify in aboot.conf ? if i check dmesg on my i386 machine there are lines like: rivafb: nVidia device/chipset 10DE0253 rivafb: Detected CRTC controller 0 being used rivafb: RIVA MTRR set to ON rivafb: PCI nVidia NV20 framebuffer ver 0.9.5b (nVidiaGeForce4 T, 128MB @ 0xD0000000) i think the 'rivafb' is the video device i have to specify in lilo.conf. but on my Miata at work i know that there is no 'pm2fb:' line in dmesg, only 'fb: lines. i send the part of the dmesg tomorrow when i'm at work...
