If you don't have svgatextmode (stm for short) or it for some reason won't work for you, you can use "vga=791" on the boot line or in lilo's append line to get a 128x48 display. There are likely ways to get even more, but I want it to be readable to the sighted occasionally. HTH - -- "Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.
