Can anyone tell me what > vga=791 actually means or does? It changes the screen mode (heh ;). If you look up the framebuffer howto, you'll find a table of VESA screen codes - lots of numbers, relating to both the resolution and the colour depth. Without a framebuffer console, you don't get pretty graphics. vga=788 might work okay. Cheers, Alex.
