1280x1024 framebuffer

[Paul William]

Hi All,

I recently bought a 17" LCD monitor which has a 'native' resolution of
1280x1024. I would like my ttys/consoles to have a resolution of
1280x1024. I think it currently has a res of 640x480.

To load the framebuffer my /etc/modules contains:

<last modules loaded>
vga16fb
fbcon
</last modules loaded>

What can I do to get a res of 1280x1024?

I have an nvidia FX5200 and use the proprietary nvidia drivers. I run
Debian unstable with a Debian 2.6.0 kernel.

Thanks very much,

Paul
