I've tested that removing the vga=xxx from lilo.conf it works great, and than I've tested to use more colours, in my case I've tested to use a 1024x768 resolution with 256 colours ... it's vga=773. if you test it you'll see that you won't have problems. If you use also 640x480 resolution with 32k colours you have the same problems. I've tested all options: the vga=xxx working good are the ones using just 256 colours, or the not usage of vga=xxx. All others create problems. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ xorg-driver-ati mailing list [email protected] http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-driver-ati
