* DSS2 frame buffer problem

I have a new board that I'd like to run a frame buffer 800x600x24
When I boot, I get this error:
   omapfb: failed to allocate framebuffer

This board is derived from a board I'm already running DSS2 at
800x600x16 on.

What do I need to change to get this to work?

Thanks

Most likely you need to allocate more VRAM with vram boot option, in
board file or kernel config option (CONFIG_OMAP2_VRAM_SIZE).

Thanks, that was it.
