Hello,

I really need to switch back to VT mode, because my linux does not currently
work very well and I need to switch back to the console (tty1) to see the
current state of the linux startup, so I now use the VESA driver, with
vga=0x317 on the linux command line.

But, I only get 1024x768, not 1366x768 as with the radeon driver.  Is there
a vesa mode for 1366x768 ?

(I already have tried hwinfo --framebuffer and I saw none)

Philippe
