I have the virtual console package as well. I have a ET3000 VGA Card with 512 KB memory and I use the 640x480 pixel mode for graphics (works fine) BUT: If I terminate a graphics program, mini-X won't come back to the former textmode. I've tried to use the Video Parameter Table to write the CRTC and GC registers as done for graphics mode, but without any success. Is anyone out there, who knows how to write the video registers ? Who knows about 800x600 or 1024x768 modes ? Enjoy, -Stefan Schroer ----------------------------------------------------------------
