Hi gentoo friends,

I'm a newbie in gentoo world.

I follow Gentoo Handbook to installl a new sytem in Vmware. My question is the new system console is 800*600. I want to change to 1280*800(my laptop in windows in this szie).

I search in Gentoo Forums, find a thread http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=49036 about this topic.

If I add video=vesafb:ywrap,mtrr vga=0x317 in grub, system.failed to start.

 

Many thanks for any hint and advcies.


My menu.lst

default 0
timeout 10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
