Pickletech,

I have the exact same need, so if you find a solution, please drop me a message and I'll do the same if I come across one.

UPDATE:
You may want to give this topic a look.

I'm actually following a similar idea using vga=788 in the isolinux.cfg file.  I'll keep you posted with my results.

NO GO on either the Lilo.conf or the isolinux.cfg file.  I'll try Fallen Kell's suggestion next

Tried Fallen Kell's solution, but it didn't seem to work. I did vga=788 and it didnt seem to change anything. What about this .XvesaDefault file in the /ramdisk/home/dsl/ folder? Anyone know if this could mean anything or what the syntax would be?

Same here.   I did vga=788 as well, but again it's displaying this line as it's starting.

Code Sample
Using Xvesa default 1024x768x32 -mouse "/dev/psaux",5 mouse


Must be grabbing that from somewhere I haven't changed yet.

I'll look at the .XvesaDefault file as well, but I'm starting to wonder how many coasters will this take to get right  :laugh:  :laugh:

If you're remastering, don't bother with anything in /home/dsl, as this directory is built during the boot process.
Instead, look into /etc/skel
The file you want is .xserverrc

Hmmm... I looked, but I don't see that file in there.

I wonder if that is because I'm remastering someone else's DSL iso - Booth FireFox Kiosk (http://boothbox.sourceforge.net/) - I doubt it.
