https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=220368 Summary: yast2-bootloader: use special vga kernel option for fbdev based configurations Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: odabrunz@novell.com ReportedBy: sndirsch@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com CC: mhopf@novell.com, ms@novell.com Meanwhile nearly all ATI GPUs need to be driven with the fbdev driver. :-( Since many users install with a low resolution and afterwards want to configure a higher resolution, the kernel vga option needs to be adjusted. SaX2 could do this itself, but then it will conflict with the setting of yast2-bootloader (next time yast2-bootloader runs the setting witll be overwritten immediately again). Proposal would be that SaX2 writes a meta file with this setting, which is read by yast2-bootloader to resolve this conflict. Something like this: /etc/sysconfig/framebuffer: SPECIAL_FBMODE="yes" (default: no) FBMODE="0x318" (default: unset) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
