Hi all,
first of all many thanks to the crew who made dynebolic, it really *rocks*
!!

It saved my (ooo)old K6-2 (400Mhz !!) from garbage dump and now I use it as
a multitrack hd recording box.
All was fine... except the screen resolution! I have an LCD panel that do
1280x1024... I've searched the web, but nothing for dynebolic.
So this is what I've done:

- dock + boot from HD (all as root)
     cfdisk -> wipe all partitions, made ext3 (bootable) & swap partitions
     reboot
     mkswap /dev/hd(x)
     swapon /dev/hd(x)
     grub (-> grubconfig)
     manually edited /boot/grub/menu.lst (and also /dyne/grub.conf, but I'm 
not sure if this works)
        >
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /dyne/2618ck1d.krn root=/dev/ram0 rw load_ramdisk=1 
max_loop=64 vga=795
        <
     -> changed: 2618ck1d.krn (the kernel image) + vga=795 (1280x1024@24bpp)


- as root after booting
     xorgcfg -> here I've specified 'monitor that can do 1280x1024' (save of 
course conf file)
     reboot


- I get 1280x1024.

hope this helps,
ciao
-Manuel-
