It's probably 24MB. The 8MB is stolen by matroxfb_crtc2. Either don't load it or give it mem=0 parameter. > Directfb app run fine.

That sounds like you're using the old 32mb-patch. The full-memory patch shouldn't break console acceleration. Either way you can fix it by limiting vyres so that things stay under 16MB. -- Ville Syrj�l� [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.sci.fi/~syrjala/ -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe directfb-users" as subject.
