Hello from Gregg C Levine normally with Jedi Knight Computers Ron, which kernel version are we discussing here? I remember that when I was trying to get those functions to work, in the 2.4.x series, I found mentioned in the display portions, different flavors of fbdev, there, some for 730, and some for the usual forms of framebuffers. ------------------- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------ "The Force will be with you...Always."
