You can't use VGA for one virtual console and fb for another. > Can I have different consoles using > dirrerent resolution framebuffers? Yes with fbset. It's the default behavior of fbset to change the settings for only one virtual console. > Do I need DirectFB for XFree86 to use > a fb driver?

Are you actually trying to do something with DirectFB? -- Ville Syrj�l� [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.sci.fi/~syrjala/ -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe directfb-dev" as subject.
