How did you get it to work? > Steve Okay, the arguement that needs to be passed to the kernel is video=XXXXXX:<xres>x<yres>[-<bpp>][@<hz>] where XXXXXX is the name of your fb driver (tdfx if it's a Voodoo), and stuff in brackets is optional. So with LILO, you would need a line like append="video=tdfx:1024x768@100" I use grub, so I just specify that argument (without the append) to the kernel command line.
