Hi, 
 
I would like to know why the vesafb driver does not support:

   Changing the screen resolution via fbset
   Double buffering by altering the yoffset virtual to visible resolution parameter. 
I have used a matrox card and been able to use these featues but having bought an NVidia card I was suprised that they weren't supported. Are these features to be added into the vesafb driver? I don't understand why they aren't supported...
 
If anyone can help I would be much appreciative :-)
 
Ian
