>What does `fbset -i' say?

*installs fbset* (if it helps, the lightwhite text of linux_logo -uy
is fine, but the normal shell lightgrey on black looks yellowish)

mode "640x480-60"
# D: 25.176 MHz, H: 31.470 kHz, V: 59.943 Hz
geometry 640 480 640 960 4
timings 39720 42 18 31 11 100 3
rgba 4/0,4/0,4/0,0/0
endmode

Frame buffer device informaion:
Name : Atari Builtin
Address : 0xb27000
Size : 307200
Type : INTERLEAVED PLANES (2 bytes interleave)
Visual : PSEUDOCOLOR
XPanStep : 1
YPanStep : 1
YWrapStep : 0
LineLength : 320
Accelerator : Atari Blitter

Hm, so it appears I *am* using an interleaved mode but do not
have the corruption. Nice… (but then, this is an old kernel with
only a few of the modern patches… OTOH, I never saw it…)

ARAnyM config looks like:

[VIDEO]
FullScreen = No
BootColorDepth = 8
VidelRefresh = 1

and
Args = root=/dev/hda1 console=tty debug=par
(using video=atafb:vga2 is no longer needed thanks to the stram fix)
