Close. I've heard of it breifly, but :
~
root@hudson # fbset 1024x768-100
Vesafb does not support changing the video mode
ioctl FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO: Invalid argument
~
root@hudson #
It only lets me display the mode. The kernel doesn't let me change
it :-(. If you know of a way to make it changeable then I would be
ecstatic to hear of it. BTW it is an SiS6326 AGP video card.
