CORRECTED MESSAGE - JAN, I AGREE THIS DIDN'T NEED TO GO TO SAMBA Jan, List: Is there any way we can compile a kernel to include the VESA Video Modes for 1440x900 resolution so that we can pass grub VGA=867 for 1440x900. This will all me to work in runlevel 3 without the screen resolution being stretched from 1024x768 to 1440x900. The stretch causes everything to be distorted. The necessary VESA modes and numbers are: 1440x900 (dec; hex) ---------- 16 color --; -- 256 color (864; 0x360) 15 bit (865; 0x361) 16 bit (866; 0x362) 24 bit (867; 0x363) 32 bit (868; 0x364) There is also the new widescreen resolution of 1600x1050, but I do not have the vesa modes for that resolution. I would like to learn how to do this, or if this is something that has to be done by the kernel folks, I would ask that they consider including this capability in the future kernels.
