What do the vc: and map: options do? map: maps framebuffer devices to VCs. E.g. I use video=pm2fb:... video=amifb:... video=map:000011 So pm2fb is fb0 and amifb fb1, and VCs 1-4 are handled by pm2fb while 5 and six are handled by amifb. Hope you get the idea. > 2.

If only I knew what vc: is for :) Michel -- ...and that is how we know the Earth to be banana-shaped. ______________________________________________________________________________ Earthling Michel Dänzer (MrCooper) \ CS student and free software enthusiast Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc,i386) user \ member of XFree86, Team *AMIGA*, AUGS ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
