[Linux-fbdev-users] Re: vesafb+NV18 : vga=771 was the sole resolution supported

[William E. <mru...@po...>]

Hey Begin!

  Here is what I needed to add to my grub.conf:

    title Fedora Core (2.6.12.1VESA)
            root (hd1,0)
            kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12.1VESA ro root=/dev/hdb1 rhgb
    vga=0x31B video=rivafb

    Note the 'vga=0x31B video=rivafb', I am running a NVidia video card.

    [root@Shrek ~]# ddcprobe

    Videocard DDC probe results
    Description:  NVIDIA Corporation NV28 Board
    Memory (MB):  128

    Monitor DDC probe results
    Monitor DDC Probe failed.

  Hope this helps.
