Hi,
I have a couple of Intel NUCs (dual core celeron CPUs, Intel chipsets including video (i915 kernel module)) that I'm trying to use for a project.
To simplify matters I was going to use the framebuffer device for video output -- but the HDMI defaults to 1920x1080 and I'd really like to change the resolution to match the projector's native resolution, which is 1024x768.
I've tried using fbset, as in:
$ fbset -geometry 1024 768 1024 768 32
but rather than change the HDMI output, it just makes the console occupy a smaller part of the screen. How useless!
I tried using fbset like this too:
$ fbset 1024x768-32
(where that mode is listed in /etc/fb.modes)
but it just threw some errors back.
Am I doing it wrong? Or is it possible that the framebuffer device for this video device just doesn't let you change the resolution?
I guess it's not a disaster if I install a minimal X setup, but first.. any suggestions for fbset?
