I think wants to get rid of the green-and-white frame around the first VT that came with 7.2 I was thinking that the green frame was controlled by lilo but now I think that's wrong. i.e he wants [ALT]+[F1] to look the same as [ALT]+[F2} ---------------------------------------------------- Jonathan Wilson System Administrator Cedar Creek Software http://www.cedarcreeksoftware.com Central Texas IT http://www.centraltexasit.com

It's a kernel compile-time option. You'll have to recompile the kernel to remove that and the startup splash screen. Jon

From an ealier post (Friday 24 August 2001):
Try echo 0x0f01 > /proc/splash (as su root). Also, take a look at: http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/katlist.BOOT.html http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/katlist.BOOTLILO.html and (Thursday 23 August 2001) to set text mode or whatever with LILO: Kernel 2.4.x recognises VGA frame buffer devices. Text mode works with 640x480 (vga=769) and 800x600 (vga=771), so you get a console screen of 100x37. XFree86 4.0.2 works in framebuffer mode 800x600 or higher. Here's a complete list: # VESA framebuffer console @ 1024x768x64k # vga=791 # VESA framebuffer console @ 1024x768x32k # vga=790 # VESA framebuffer console @ 1024x768x256 # vga=773 # VESA framebuffer console @ 800x600x64k # vga=788 # VESA framebuffer console @ 800x600x32k # vga=787 # VESA framebuffer console @ 800x600x256 # vga=771 # VESA framebuffer console @ 640x480x64k # vga=785 # VESA framebuffer console @ 640x480x32k # vga=784 # VESA framebuffer console @ 640x480x256 # vga=769 M
Hi, You only have to switch off the frambuffer device. Edit the vga line in /etc/lilo/conf: vga=normal run /sbin/lilo afterwards and reboot. Tim On Mon, Sep 17, 2001 at 02:29:19PM -0300, Márcio Di Pietro wrote:
