Tiny Font size after log out of X windows

wylie1001 · 10-30-2004, 05:12 PM

Hi,
Does anyone know which file adjust's the font size when not in X?
Or what file you use when getting out of X window's. I can't read the screen
at all when I log out. I have lived with it for a long time but now would like
to get it fixed. I looked around and can't seem to get info on it. I use Slack-10,
maybe that is my problem.. Just Kidding.. It was fine in slack 8 & 9. Any HELP
would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Have a look in /etc/lilo/conf.

Look for "vga=" lines and pick a resolution that you can live with. You can havve a default "vga" config (for all boot options) or you can add new boot options and have different resolutions in each.

Please remember that if you make changes here you need to run "/sbin/lilo" to commit the changes.

Thanks for the reply.
I am changing the vga like you said but still n/g. I am waiting for 2.4.28 kernel to come out so I can build another kernel I think maybe I did something in there wrong. I read alot of problems with fonts but mine is not with the xservers. I will post it when I figure it out hopefully. Thanks
