The good news is, if you see the cursor, it means the drawing functions is working since atyfb uses soft_cursor() which uses xxxfb_imageblit (the same function to draw the characters).

That implies the driver can set the video mode independently from fbset. If it doesn't, you can use something like this: fbset 640x480-60 && stty cols 80 rows 30 Tony ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf
