trying to decrease resolution of tty terminal
by vonbiber from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5RFH0)
On a Lenovo T480s laptop (intel graphics) and slackware64-current
the fonts are way too tiny on the tty terminals.
I've been trying to decrease the resolution in the console
with this boot option
Code:vga=791 video=vesafb:ywrap.mtrr:3But this had no effect.
In the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf-vesa
I tried to set the DefaultDepth to 16, instead of 24
Code:...
Device "VESA Framebuffer"
...
DefaultDepth 16
# DefaultDepth 24This didn't work either.
