Using the antiX 15.01 386 iso in virtualbox. By default, fbdev is being used (inxi shows vesa unloaded). This limits the resolution to 800x600 in virtualbox.

In 15, vesa is in use by default, with higher resolution choices.

Of course, install the guest additions in both gets you more better resolution choices. I'm just wondering if using fbdev vs. vesa is considered a bugfix, or if it is unintentional.

Is that installed or live?

If installed, I guess the xorg.conf from running live isn't getting copied over. This sets it to use vesa

edit: yep, I installed with the wrong iso. Nothing more to see here __{{emoticon}}__
