X Resolution problem

My settings work fine and my resolution in my WM (awesome) is right. OpenGL seems to work fine aswell. But when i change to tty2-3-4 etc the resolution is wrong. I cant see the entire screen, and the font is huge.

Any thoughts?

Humble thanks.

Re: X Resolution problem

Nvidia Ti4200 or 4800 cant remember seeing I`m at work and its an old computer i just "inherited".

Any help on further configuration regarding my video card would be nice.

Re: X Resolution problem

What are you using to set your screen resolution? KMS I presume?

Re: X Resolution problem

Huge font may mean that the KMS is disabled or you have some weird consolefont settings.
Please post your rc.conf.
