i've compiled my kernel with:
vga console
vga mode selection support
framebuffer->ati mach64 support,
all as builtins. as explained in Documentation/fb/modedb.txt, the atyfb
driver is supported by modedb, and i've placed
append="video=atyfb:640x480"
in my lilo.conf. it is probably worth noting that i also still have
vga=791 in my lilo.conf from the vesafb days; i'm considering that
this (as it, for one, specifies a different resolution) may be the
culprit, but the box is at home.
any ideas? if i simply need to rtfm, please direct me; i've been
searching for an answer to this since 2.2.
