This may well be a hardware issue.
I compiled the kernel 2.1.111 with the vesafb option enabled. I can now select some graphic modes (640x480, 1024x768) at boot time.
My question is : How dose it come that I can't get the intermediate resolution 800x600 ? All I get is a messed up screen. The machine dosen't get freezed, I can blindly start X.
The graphic card used is S3 VIRGE/DX 4Mb. The monitor is an old SVGA. I can get all the three resolutoins mentioned above under XFree86.
