Well, I have a framebuffer thing going on, so while my console is nice pretty 1024x768 16bit, X couldn't go above that. In lilo, the line for that is:
vga = 791
For 1280x790 16bit it's 793 however at boot up lilo spat out errors about how it didn't know what that number was. Well, I guess it does understand hex, because I tried:
vga = 0x31A and it understood that just fine. Now I have a nice and pretty 1280x790 16bit. Oh yah also Counter-Strike works with wine at 1280x690 at 90fps if anyone cares... :D

1280x790 works now!! Thanks alot!

Was it hard getting cstrike to work under linux? I never tried wine before, so is it pretty straight forward or is there any little tricks I should know about? thanks again!

erm I made a whole bunch of typos. Everything that says 690 or 790 or whatever is supposed to be 960. Guess I was tired. I don't know what's up with counter-strike. I figured since I got it working on my computer it would work on his. I tried it, NOPE. Our hardware is pretty much the same. I let him use my video card (GeForce 3), we both have 800Mhz CPUS. Mine being an Intel P3 and his is an AMD. For some odd reason, it just wont work on his. It gives him some problems with the wine debugger, then of course on mine it works even better than it does in windows. I wish I knew why...
