RE: [Asterisk-Users] frame buffering
For Olle-Wiki: Also in Grub you can pass parameters to kernel: 1) edit /boot/grub/menu.lst 2) find the command that loads kernel, e.g. something like this: kernel (hd0,1)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda2 vga=0x317:off splash=silent showopts 3) change the parameter vga=... to vga=normal 4) save and reboot --Markku -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Olle E.
