I rebuild my kernel ,I chose extra options which are contact with VESA : [*]VESA VGA graphics support [*]Userspace VESA VGA graphics support [*]ATI Radeon display support I'm sure that the vesa frame buffer support option was chosen by default. Then I write grub.conf like this: root=/dev/sda6 video=1024x768M@60m It is what the document in source tree exactly shows. The system can start up and there is no error message ,but resolution no changed . Why it would be this? How can I figure it out? ------------------ 原始邮件 ------------------ 发件人: "Andrey Moshbear"; 发送时间: 2011年10月20日(星期四) 下午2:06 收件人: "gentoo-user"; 主题: Re: [gentoo-user] Why can't I set the resolution of console ?
