I enabled fbcon use flag and re-emerged mol. I ran molvconfig and set up a |
2 |
ton of video modes. |
3 |
|
4 |
When I try to do startmol (from within X/Kde and without) I get a black |
5 |
screen with a blinking cursor in the upper left. Anything I type gets |
6 |
echoed to the screen but that's it. |

Thanks! |

molvconfig is only available when you enable the fbcon use flag since |
37 |
it's only appropriate when you're using MOL fullscreen on a virtual |
38 |
terminal. If you don't want to use MOL this way, make sure you turn off |
39 |
the virtual terminal switching in /etc/mol/molrc.video. If you do want |
40 |
to use MOL on a virtual terminal (recommended since it's faster) |
41 |
re-emerge MOL with the fbcon use flag set. |
