Hello ppl,
recently I set up my kernel to boot in graphics mode vga = 789( 800x600 32
bbp, I am using kernel 2.1.131 patch with 2.1.131-ac6 ) by enabling
"Support for frame buffer devices" in Console Drivers configuration
section. I passed the "video=vesa:ypan" parameter to the kernel, in order
to enable scroll support using shift pgup/pgdn, but the available scroll
"history" was just half of a page, and it was very slow indeed. I also tried
video=vesa:ywrap, and got the same result. Is there anyway ( setting or
smg ) to improve this situation?
Any help or suggestion is welcome ;}
