Dear sirs, my first trial with GRX245 failed. After making and installing without svgalib-support the Linux console framebuffer driver cannot be found. But the direct access to the fb device (/dev/fb0) works fine. Setting with GrSetDriver(drvspec) with drvspec="linuxfb gw 800 gh 600 nc 256" dosn't make anything. Also setting of GRX20DRV. What must I do? Do I need a separate driver? Where can I get it?
Looking forward to your answer. Thanks for your trouble.

Please post the output of the "lfbinfo" program here. But I tink the problem is you have set the framebuffer with 8 bpp (256 colors), and the GRX framebuffer driver only knows about 16, 24 and 32 bpp modes.
