[Linux-fbdev-users] Where to put fbset command during system boot up

[Kushal K. <kus...@ho...>]

Hi,

I am using Debian Etch with kernel 2.6.17 and I am using the framebuffer 
driver for my Graphic Card(AMD GX processor). Now the problem is, when my 
system boots on the framebuffer console, the resolution is "640x480" which I 
later found out once my system booted into fluxbox and I ran the fbset -v 
command to see the resolution of the framebuffer debvice. Now I know that my 
framebuffer driver supports "1024x768" resolution. I checked this my hitting 
Alt-Ctrl-F1 to switch from the fluxbox to the virtual console and then I 
gave the command fbset -v "1024x768-60" and the resolution got changed and I 
was getting a much bigger display now.

So my problem is how can I get that resolution during the system boot also. 
I tried putting a script called setconsole (which has a single line fbset -v 
"1024x768-60") in /etc/init.d directory and made it executable and linked it 
with the rc.N directories by giving the following command:

update-rc.d setconsole defaults 10

but it did not help.

How can get the particular resolution on my framebuffer console during the 
system boot? Do I need to place the script somewhere else?

THanks in advance.
