Eventually got it working with vesafb-tng. |
| 10 |
Had to splash_geninitramfs with all available resolutions |
| 11 |
(was using 1024x768) |
| 12 |
and explicitly specify color depth in kernel command line |
| 13 |
(the driver uses 8bpp by default). |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Still the console comes up in 800x600 despite explicit |
| 16 |
resolution settings. Why? |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
I could get better resolution in the console with nvidiafb |
| 19 |
but nvidia binary drivers I'm using in X don't work with it. |
