>Description:
My kernel is compiled with VESA support, and with options SC_PIXEL_MODE for the syscons driver.
Then, when i want to set the vesa mode in my consol typing "vidcontrol VESA_800x600", I can't see anything.
I know it has caused a kernel panic, because it is waiting for two <enter> before rebooting.
I have a Diamond Viper 550 graphic card, with a NVidia TNT1 chipset.
>How-To-Repeat:
See the description.
