If you are using an analog display, then perhaps you need to give fbset the entire modeline. You probably know how to do this, just enter the modeline in /etc/fb.modes and label it 1280x768-60 for example. > Currently, fbset says: > mode "1024x768-76" > # D: 78.653 MHz, H: 59.949 kHz, V: 75.694 Hz > geometry 1024 768 1024 768 16 > timings 12714 128 32 16 4 128 4 > rgba 5/11,6/5,5/0,0/0 > endmode > > 855resolution version 0.4 says: > Chipset: 855GM (id=0x35808086) > VBIOS type: 2 > VBIOS Version: 3360 > [...] > Mode 7e : 1280x768, 32 bits/pixel I don't know hot 855resolution works....
