I've beet STFW for the mode 1680x1050, but with your tip I got it. Here's another list in case some other poor guy is looking for it: ,----[ hwinfo --framebuffer ] | 02: None 00.0: 11001 VESA Framebuffer | [Created at bios.450] | Unique ID: rdCR.VSBbdW2x3qC | Hardware Class: framebuffer | Model: "NVIDIA G86 Board - NV_NB8M " | Vendor: "NVIDIA Corporation" | Device: "G86 Board - NV_NB8M " | SubVendor: "NVIDIA" | SubDevice: | Revision: "Chip Rev" | Memory Size: 14 MB | Memory Range: 0xd5000000-0xd5dfffff (rw) | Mode 0x0300: 640x400 (+640), 8 bits | Mode 0x0301: 640x480 (+640), 8 bits | Mode 0x0303: 800x600 (+800), 8 bits | Mode 0x0305: 1024x768 (+1024), 8 bits | Mode 0x0307: 1280x1024 (+1280), 8 bits | Mode 0x030e: 320x200 (+640), 16 bits | Mode 0x030f: 320x200 (+1280), 24 bits | Mode 0x0311: 640x480 (+1280), 16 bits | Mode 0x0312: 640x480 (+2560), 24 bits | Mode 0x0314: 800x600 (+1600), 16 bits | Mode 0x0315: 800x600 (+3200), 24 bits | Mode 0x0317: 1024x768 (+2048), 16 bits | Mode 0x0318: 1024x768 (+4096), 24 bits | Mode 0x031a: 1280x1024 (+2560), 16 bits | Mode 0x031b: 1280x1024 (+5120), 24 bits | Mode 0x0330: 320x200 (+320), 8 bits | Mode 0x0331: 320x400 (+320), 8 bits | Mode 0x0332: 320x400 (+640), 16 bits | Mode 0x0333: 320x400 (+1280), 24 bits | Mode 0x0334: 320x240 (+320), 8 bits | Mode 0x0335: 320x240 (+640), 16 bits | Mode 0x0336: 320x240 (+1280), 24 bits | Mode 0x033d: 640x400 (+1280), 16 bits | Mode 0x033e: 640x400 (+2560), 24 bits | Mode 0x0345: 1600x1200 (+1600), 8 bits | Mode 0x0346: 1600x1200 (+3200), 16 bits | Mode 0x0347: 1400x1050 (+1400), 8 bits | Mode 0x0348: 1400x1050 (+2800), 16 bits | Mode 0x0349: 1400x1050 (+5600), 24 bits | Mode 0x034a: 1600x1200 (+6400), 24 bits | Mode 0x0352: 2048x1536 (+8192), 24 bits | Mode 0x0360: 1280x800 (+1280), 8 bits | Mode 0x0361: 1280x800 (+5120), 24 bits | Mode 0x0362: 768x480 (+768), 8 bits | Mode 0x0364: 1440x900 (+1440), 8 bits | Mode 0x0365: 1440x900 (+5760), 24 bits | Mode 0x0368: 1680x1050 (+1680), 8 bits | Mode 0x0369: 1680x1050 (+6720), 24 bits | Mode 0x037c: 1920x1200 (+1920), 8 bits | Mode 0x037d: 1920x1200 (+7680), 24 bits | Config Status: cfg=new, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown `---- I'm using vga=0x368 since 8 bits are enough for the console and at 24 it's too slow. Maybe I should try nvidiafb? But I recall some problems with the non-free module... Maybe someone else has tried this?
