Hi all
I�m trying to configure my graphics board (see topic) following the
instructions of this newsgroup (comp.os.linux.hardware) but it doesn�t
work.
If I try to change the vga resolution with 0317 parameter in my
lilo.conf file, the screen becomes black and I have to shutdown the
system.
If I configure XF86Config with the FBDev driver I get this messages when
type startx:

---------------------------------------------------
XFree 86 Version 3.3.2 /X Window System
(protocol Version 11, revision 0,  vendor release 6300)
Release date: March 2 1998
Operating System: Linux 2.1.119 i 686 [ELF]
Configured drivers:
FBDev: Server for frame buffer device
(patchlevel 7): mfb, iplan2p2, iplan2p4, iplan2p8, ilbm, afb, cfb8,
cfb16, cfb32

Fatal sever error:
xf86OpenConsole: Cannot open /dev/fb0 (operation not supported by
device)
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can�t connect: errno = 111
giving up
--------------------------------------------------

What�s the matter?

Thanks in advance.
