- David, can you brief us on where your machine currently stands? If I
understand correctly, you've successfully flashed it with LinuxBIOS, but
don't have it giving a usable VGA signal (is it expecting the DCON to be
there?), so you can only use it through ssh. Is this accurate? How long
will this take to fix?
Technically, the signal is bad because the current build sets mode
[EMAIL PROTECTED], which may or may not please your monitor (probably not).
We have two possible courses of action here:
1) Change the default mode to something standard (like 1024x768) for the
first build (and change it back when we go wide with the DCON image).
2) Replace the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mode with a [EMAIL PROTECTED] mode.
In both cases, we're eventually going to insert the right mode depending
if we detect a DCON or not, but that will have to wait for me to get a DCON
to make sure the LinuxBIOS detection works correctly.

well, since almost none of us have displays, I think vga compat is a
must :-)
