Re: [PLUG] full graphical web browsing from the console (without X)


Also...I used "vga=ask" to get a list of valid modes. The list shows the hex values. From there you can convert to decimal if you wish.

I also use the vga=0xa on the kernel line in grub like how they describe
doing a vga=780. Out of curiosity, I tried the vga=780 and it produces
the same results. Can anyone shed some light on how this number is

to achieve with frame-buffer.
