That was a very nice tip. I must have known it sometime or at least |
| 22 |
seen it but had totally forgotten how to search in make menuconfig |
| 23 |
dialog. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
I've found the settings and now recompiling... so I'll know soon if it |
| 26 |
is done or still needs work. |

By the way about the vga= setting. I grabbed a chart from some where |
| 29 |
long ago showing the notation I was using: |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
## 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1280x1024 |
| 32 |
## 256 0x301 0x303 0x305 0x307 |
| 33 |
## 32k 0x310 0x313 0x316 0x319 |
| 34 |
## 64k 0x311 0x314 0x317 0x31A |
| 35 |
## 16M 0x312 0x315 0x318 0x31B |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
do you know of a chart that shows the decimal notation like you |
| 38 |
posted? (Its not in `man vga') |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
And I don't recall where I got that from... where ever it was, it |
| 41 |
probably also has the decimal equivalents. |
