To configure the resolution on the GFX 550e card to
1152x900@66Hz, type the following:

prompt# mkoconfig -res 1152x900x66

NOTE: If no device is specified,

mkoconfig

To verify the resolution prior to setting it permanently, add the
word "try" after the resolution name. This option will display a
test pattern on the screen until a return key is hit. Then the
resolution can be accepted or rejected. For example:

prompt# mkoconfig -dev /dev/fbs/mko0 \

–res 1152x900x66 try

To set the resolution to 1024x768x60 with a single TrueColor
visual (no 8-bit PseudoColor visual):

prompt# mkoconfig -res 1024x768x60 \

To display the current settings for
