I did the following

video=atyfb:640x480@67

But the same thing happened.

Is there anything that has changed in the kernel's video since YDL
1.2.1's stock kernel? Or if this isn't a kernel problem, could it be
BootX?

Also, is there a manual that explains all the video arguments that can
be passed through BootX to the kernel?

Thanks
