Hey guys.. Im still fighting this horrid laptop! (Gateway 2000 Solo P3C) Im stuck in 640X480 mode and would like to have my console in 800X600 mode. I have read that by having the machine boot in 600X800 yields better results when starting X. Here is my question, how do I get my console into 800X600 mode? I have tried my BIOS and there is no option for an extended text mode. DOS also boots into 640X480. This machine uses the C&T 655548 chip. If anyone can any links, advice, suggestions are will be appreciated. Here are pics of the laptop. You can see the console is 640X480 and so is x. I also cant get x to display more than 4 colors. http://www.AlvaroGil.com/~alvaro/misc/FreeBSD_Questions/SmallConsole.JPG http://www.AlvaroGil.com/~alvaro/misc/FreeBSD_Questions/Small4clrX.JPG -- ____________________________________________ Alvaro Gil http://www.AlvaroGil.com '84 Volvo 242 Turbo (Silver) 15 psi '97 Leopard Gecko (White, Yellow, Black) NJIT Mechanical Engineering Student ____________________________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
