next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I want to use that mode (I have been using it in Linux, before I
switched to FreeBSD), on an ATI Mach 64. Before, I used to specify a
'vga=0x133' parameter to LILO. Is there any way to specify this to
the kernel, or to convince vidcontrol to show me mode 0x133 as
available and with text size 132x43? (and also use it)
I am using FreeBSD 4-STABLE, cvsupped about two days ago.
Output from vidcontrol:
# vidcontrol -i mode
mode# flags type size font window linear buffer
