From Caos Linux Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

If the shell (framebuffer console) is not filling out the whole area of your screen after boot-up, you may need to adjust the resolution by editing the file /etc/grub.conf (using your favorite editor):

Resolution Kernel Parameter
640x480x32k vga=785
800x600x32k vga=787
1024x768x64k vga=791 
title cAos: Community Linux 2.0 (2.6.11.6-61.caos)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.11.6-61.caos root=/dev/hda2 vga=791
        initrd /initrd-2.6.11.6-61.caos.img
