Ok, I tried changing the modes to "current" and 'fbset 1024x768-anything' works fine, I'm using "-100" right now. However fbset only effects the current tty. It doesn't effect tty7. So X still runs at 640x480... As I said in the past, setting the driver to "tdfx" causes the X server to segfault (signal 11) at startup (see list archives.) When I built this kernel, I said yes to tdfx framebuffer.. but how do I check if it's being used? 'cat /proc/fb' shows: 0 3Dfx Voodoo3 1 OFfb /bandit/3Dfx,Voodoo3 Looking at that I'd gather it's using the tdfxfb driver. As I said in a previous thread, I'd LOVE to get the fdfx driver to work. So if anyone can help figure out why it segfaults, I'd be very happy - especially since the fbdev isn't accelerated... TIA, Ron
