Good news: I just tried "video=1600x1200" and it worked great.prj wrote:There is no module parameter for that. Perhaps there is a way to inject modelines (xrandr?) but I haven't played with that.Is there some way I can tell the module manually which resolution to use?
I learned about this parameter recently (as part of tracking down a problem with the nouveau fb). I tried to play with the "RM" and "@<hz>" options and they work as well. OTOH the "-<bpp>" option doesn't work, or more precisely seems to be ignored, e.g. "video=1600x1200-16" still gives me a 24bpp framebuffer. See Documentation/fb/modedb.txt for a description of the format you can use for this argument.
