Re: intelfb on 82852/855GM

        Hi,

    vga= depends on the BIOS. Check which modes are possible with your 
BIOS. Also, vesafb is it working for you ? If yes, you should stick with 
it. I don't own a flat-panel, so I won't implement LFP support. I hope 
somebody else will help for implementing it. I think it's not a very 
difficult thing to do. But as i can't debug it, i won't try it.

Regards
Sylvain
