19 Nope. PC still boots with lame framebuffer.

21 Now it's:
22
23 #fbset -s /dev/fb0
24 Unknown video mode '/dev/fb0'
25
26 But, #fbset -s -fb /dev/fb0
27
28 mode "640x480-60"
29 # D: 25.171 MHz, H: 31.463 kHz, V: 59.930 Hz
30 geometry 640 480 640 480 8
31 timings 39729 48 16 33 10 96 2
32 rgba 8/0,8/0,8/0,0/0
33 endmode
34
35 Line 5 has been replaced
36
37 #fbset -s /dev/fb1
38 Unknown video mode '/dev/fb1'
39
40 And for #fbset -s -fb /dev/fb1
41
42 mode "1280x1024-60"
43 # D: 108.944 MHz, H: 63.599 kHz, V: 59.999 Hz
44 geometry 1280 1024 1280 1024 32
45 timings 9179 217 79 32 1 137 3
46 vsync high
47 rgba 8/16,8/8,8/0,0/0
48 endmode
49
50 Line 5 is baaaaaack! I don't think fbset even looks at
51 /etc/fb.modes, least not with the -fb option.
52
53 FWIW:
54
55 $cat /proc/fb
56 0 ATY Rage 128
57 1 VESA VGA
