When I do not type dsl vga=788; fb800x600, and I just press enter, it boots and displays in yellow-green and white, no other colors, and when I type dsl vga=normal I get error

'modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module fb0
XIO: fatal IO error 104(Connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0" after 0 requests(0 known processed) wiht 0 events remaining
dsl@tty1[ds[]$'

Doesn't matter whether fb800x600 is typed.

I haven't tryed no frame buffering

Thank you

BIlly

Try:

dsl xsetup vga=normal

and then test some different XVesa resolutions and color depths. Hopefully, one will work with your card.
