Quote (stormrider_may @ Jan. 29 2006,14:09) | I can't change console resolution, i put vga=788 on lilo, upgrade it, but when i reboot it asks me which resolution should i use. How to change it? |
What type of install?: Traditional Debian Hard Drive install? Frugal install to hdx? Or some other install type?
If you did a typical Debian Hard Drive install then After you make a change to your lilo.conf file open a command prompt and:
Code Sample | dsl@box:$~sudo lilo
|
reboot and your new boot options should take effect.
If you did a Frugal install(my favorite type) then boot from the CD and at the command prompt type:
Code Sample | dsl vga=788 2 frugal_install.sh go through your install as per normal remembering to put in your persistent home and opt, but at the end when it asks you if you want to format Y or Upgrade N choose N, this will leave your old install intact but update your lilo

Hope that was of some use to you. Rob
