I don't know, the frame buffer device in my kernel has a bug that stops the 320x200x256 mode from working. I do know that the vga_clear() function does some I/O in this mode which caused me some problems when trying to run 1.4.2 without root privs. The frame buffer device I'm using also does not do the 16 colour modes. The list of working mode is rather long. But on my system all modes from 10 (640x480x256) with a resolution that is in timing.c, 256 or mode colours and have a bytes per row that is a multiple of 32 work. -- Christopher John Purnell | A friend in need's a friend in deed http://www.lost.org.uk/ | A friend with weed is better --------------------------| A friend with breasts and all the rest What gods do you pray to? | A friend who's dressed in leather
