[gentoo-user] Still got a problem with vesafb-tng

[sHadoW MaN]

Hi

I am not able to fix the problem with vesa-tng, While the boot process the 
screen resolution is adjusted as specified on my kernel configuration 
800x600@56 (actually I use 2.6.15) . Everything is ok until the xdm is 
loaded,then when I switch back to console using Ctrl+Alt+Fn the resolution 
seems to be bigger and shifted on the left of the screen that make the 
beginning of the line unreadble. I looked on topics on the forums but none 
could help me fix my problem. Any Idea Please ?


Thanks a lot

I found fb/splash not working correctly with 2.6.15. I haven't had much time 
to investigate, so I simply went back to 2.6.14.

Noticed lot of problems with it too, TFT screen just goes wacky on me,
shaking like if it was afraid of something. Blank lines crossing the
screen vertically on CRT, some red lines at the screen edge. Going
back to 2.6.14 solved it too till I decided I would just disable it...
