But the problem here is, X server ignores it and always selects some "best fit" resolution. So the real question probably is - is it possible to make X server respect currently chosen console resolution? If it is not possible - is it possible to force fbdev X driver during installation? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] To contact the owner, e-mail: [email protected]
