I just checked my system and found that there is no V86d utility.
 It is wired because I remember the vesa option was chosen
 by default  :-(  . What should I do now? Should I rebuild my kernel or
 compiled vesa into module ?

I searched the parametres though the documents in kernel source tree.
 The document shows just like what I wrote .

you have "aty" in the strings above - shouldnt it be "ati"

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?
