I have only run Freevo in framebuffer mode (no X windows! In fact I don't even know how to run freevo under X!) Just make sure you are booting into framebuffer mode (I small tux pic will appear on the top of your screen while linux boots when you are). I run 640x480x64k by setting vga=785 in my lilo.conf Then, in your freevo dir, edit the freevo.conf and set display = fbdev
It helped me tremendously to have already had the knowlede to run mplayer in vesa & framebuffer mode too! Hope this helps! --Robert ----- Original Message ----- From: "Richard J.
