Yes it does but has no affect on changing the console resolution
Debian has fbset package and allows me to change console resolution
Maybe RHEL/CentOS has not caught up Debian 8 is a bit newer

It?s not a question of what is ?newer?.  Fedora has ?fbset?, and has had it since before CentOS6 was released, and continues to have it in Fedora 22 and Rawhide.

Red Hat decided not to include ?fbset? in RHEL6, and it isn?t built in the CentOS Extras either.  It is simply not included.


Any insight into why it is dropped? Is there something about RHEL/CentOS that prevents this tool from being able to adjust the console resolution? Have they provided a new tools that gives the same functionality?
