[Bug 234142] New: Improve framebuffer configuration
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=234142 Summary: Improve framebuffer configuration Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: SaX2 AssignedTo: ms@novell.com ReportedBy: sndirsch@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de CC: mhopf@novell.com Due to more and more graphics cards, e.g. ATI > X1000, which are no longer supported by any open source native driver, we should provide a better framebuffer configuration, which also provides different resolutions/color depths to chose. For this SaX2 needs to write a meta file with the appropriate vga=0xabc kernel boot option, which then can be read by the yast bootloader module. So this bugreport is also related to Bug #220368. -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=234142 ------- Comment #5 from ms@novell.com 2007-01-31 04:24 MST ------- Olaf if I call: yast2 bootloader print section="SUSE LINUX 10.2" option=append I got: Value: selinux=0 resume=/dev/hda2 splash=silent acpi=off apm=off showopts Everything is there except "vga" I see no possibility to set the vga parameter. Your suggestion to rewrite the complete section sounds a bit unpractical and as I said printing the section doesn't show the vga option though it exists If I call: yast2 bootloader set section="SUSE LINUX 10.2" option=append value=vga=0x222 I got __two__ vga entries in the menu.lst Something is really broken :-) Could you fix this Thanks -- 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.
