I downloaded the test kernel for the nVidia vid cards and installed it.
it works, but i can only get 640x480 resolution. doesn't matter what I
set the kernel arguments to or what I set in the XF86Config-4 file.
always 640x480 in console and X. has anyone gotten this to work right?

My yaboot.conf looked something like this..

image=/boot/vmlinux-test2
        root=/dev/hdb4
        label=nvidia
        video=riva:1280x1024-24@85

am I missing something? I have read on the list that someone had many
resolutions working.
