However, it is not sysctl variable (as Kazu was against it and I understand it). It is ioctl() and you can use "vidcontrol -M n" to call this one, but it does not work as it should: Please, could anybody commit very simple patches in PR kern/24437? It was assigned to Kazu by Johan, but it seems that Kazu is really out of time. Or are there any objections? Thanks. -- Rudolf Cejka (cejkar@dcse.fee.vutbr.cz; http://www.fee.vutbr.cz/~cejkar) Brno University of Technology, Faculty of El. Engineering and Comp.
