Message-ID: <200402031827.58226.rfjak@eircom.net> (raw)
There already seems to be such a patch : I have not tried it, but have come
across it. The following is extracted from the README
DRIVER FRAMEBUFFER FOR VESA GRAPHIC CARDS
Version 1.0
(C) 2003 Raster Software Vigo
This piece of code wants to be a Framebuffer driver for Linux boxes, able to
work with all VESA 2.0-compliant graphic card. The difference between this
driver and the one supplied with the kernel is that this driver allows to
change in-the-fly the resolution and color depth, and even to have each
console in a different graphic mode.
This driver is for the 2.4.x kernel series.
DISCLAIMER
This driver is distributed "as is", without warranty of any kind, under the
terms of the GPL license, version 2 or later. You can find it in the file
COPYING.
