only guessing - perhaps there is a bootparameter like 'nofb' or 'fb=off'?
64 MB will be very few for KDE or gnome or every X11-install.
Hello I use a Fujitsu Lifebook 64 MB Ram 3 GB HDD.
I want to make a HDD install, but I have Problems with the display.
I Use Knoppix 3.6
When I type
Then I have a display where I must scrollCode:boot: fb800x600 knoppix screen=800x600 noddc
fb640x480 doesn't exists
When I type
It doesn't work: I don't see anything only lights and darksCode:knoppix screen=640x480 noddc
Thanks for Idears

Accord with the Knoppix CHEATCODES
switch to "No-framebuffer mode, but X"Code:vga=normal
But it doesn't work.
Is there a special sequencing for the arguments?
About the 64 MB with a swapfile: I thought too but I saw the Desktop I had only to scroll. Therefor I think iit can work?!?
When booting from cd, while you now try from hd?I saw the Desktop I had only to scroll.
Then you may edit your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 - file.
Boot with the option '3'; yes - a single THREE without ...=3, which means runlevel 3, which is multiuser and networking without X11.
BTW: order of options doesn't play a role.
look for the display-sections, and modify:Code:mcedit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
toCode:SubSection "Display" Depth 32 Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection
for all Depths (colordepth).Code:SubSection "Display" Depth 32 Modes "640x480" EndSubSection
after saving, trystartx
Why Do you meen I try to boot from HD?When booting from cd, while you now try from hd?
I want only to bot from CD in the first step!
But to make it short:
You are the hero!
With your tips it work perfectly!
Thank you very much!

There is one think I don't understand:
I don't need to edit the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
when I start with knoppix 3
and then directly type startx it work also??
a) I didn't really understood, why you once see something and have to scroll, and once you only have lights and darks. (800x600 vs. 640x480 I understand now).
b) No idea. I allways boot to runlevel 3.
