console video modes and console screensavers
Hi folks...I was using allscreens mode of MODE_282 but I noticed the console screensaver never kicked in. When I went back to a standard 80x25 mode, screensaver works. Is this normal behaviour? -- aRDy Music and Rick Dicaire present: http://www.ardynet.com http://www.ardynet.com:9000/ardymusic.ogg.m3u ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

My kernel conf looks like this (relevant part only): # VGA device vga # VGA video card driver # Vesa support and options options VESA# VESA support (man syscons) options SC_PIXEL_MODE # SC Screen Resolution (man syscons) options SC_KERNEL_CONS_ATTR=(FG_LIGHTRED|BG_BLACK) # Kernel message will be printed red on black # Splash and ScreenSaver support device splash # Splash screen and screen saver support # syscons is the default console driver, resembling an SCO console device sc on /etc/rc.d allscreens_flags=MODE_280 On that scenario, the only working screensaver seems to be logo_saver ... the rest of the screensavers don't work.

Indeed, that works for me using MODE_282, thank you very much. -- aRDy Music and Rick Dicaire present: http://www.ardynet.com http://www.ardynet.com:9000/ardymusic.ogg.m3u ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
