Made the kernel, booted fine. Once I got into the
graphics kde4. The text-
mode bootup was completely kerlbooey!
So what might I place in my lilo.conf to get this
straightened out (using an
older matrox mila g200 at 1200x1065)? Currently has vga=6.
This stuff was in the logs. Very interesting. How to get this stuff to Ingo?
