1 Hi group,
2
3 The console fonts in my new LCD monitor are H-U-G-E.
4 Attempts to shrink them by adding vga=xxx at the grub
5 prompt after the kernel line has no effect. Here's the
6 entire grub session:
7
8 grub> root (hd0,1)
9
10 grub> kernel /vmlinuz vga=794 #1280x1024(so I'm told)
11
12 grub> boot
13
14
15 I'm not using a grub.conf file, preferring the manual
16 method for now.
17
18 X displays the required resolution excellently.

20 FWIW, I'm using a Radeon 9200 pro vid card with the
21 digital interface.

23 Thanks,
