I have a buggy i815 card ( its VBE is functionally challenged ) and when I
switch Virtual Console from X to say VC1 I get a screen corruption. This is
fixed by running fbset -n 640x480-60 ( for example ), but I have to log in
blind and type this with the screen corrupted.
I would like to trap a VC switch signal and execute the command
automatically. Does anybody know if this can be done in userland ?. Its too
generic to add to a kernel so I'd rather not do that
Help apreciated
Jack
