Hello, I recently got a 3dfx Voodoo3 card and thus enabled framebuffer support in the kernel. I would like to have my Debian system come up in 1024x764 mode with maximum vertical sync frequency, so according to Documentation/fb/modedb.txt in the Linux source I appended the following to my kernel command line video=tdfx:1024x768 Unfortunatelly, I get a vertical sync of 60Hz, which is extremely hard on my eyes. My monitor is able to sync at 100Hz at this resolution, and I would like to have this refresh rate. According to /usr/share/doc/fbset/FAQ.gz I should be able to specify all timing parameters myself, like this: append="video=XXXXXX:xres:1024,yres:768,pixclock:12699,left:176,right:16,upper:28,lower:1,hslen:96,vslen:3,sync:3,depth:8" where XXXXXX would be tdfx in my case. Unfortunatelly this doesn't work, it comes up with the default console of 80x30. I also tried to run fbset at bootup, but this only changes the first VT all others remain at 60Hz. Also, is there a way to get rid of the white area next to the penguin? TIA, Viktor -- Viktor Rosenfeld WWW: http://www.informatik.hu-berlin.de/~rosenfel/
