Then your modprobe is not parsing the command line for any relevant module parameters and would need to put those into 'echo options i915 modeset=1 > /etc/modprobe.d/i915-modeset.conf' > Is there a way, once up in KMS, to "dynamically" switch to my old > "VGA Text" mode (from this crazy 240x67) and, ideally, back to KMS too? look at Documentation/fb/modedb.txt for a description of the video= parameter to specify the mode for the console. Something like video=640x480 will restore the VGA mode with 80x25 characters. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre
