With the current vesafb incarnation, no. The vesafb driver currently selects the mode from a table of standard vesa modes provided by the BIOS, and 1280x768 is not standard. Try vesafb-tng if you need a non-vesa standard mode. http://dev.gentoo.org/~spock/projects/vesafb-tng/ Tony PS: A mode settable vesafb may happen soon enough... ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
