I've used my implementation and it works great... Resolution is drawn fine on boot and afterwards I can even get CI/QE/OpenGL + Resolution thanks to patch... Check 1 post back for more info... @Prasys: I slightly rewrote your patch for GMA to remove warnings... working great... thanks for the hard work buddy...

Hi Andy I am not sure if you understood my question, but I was enquiring about the resolution of the bootloader when it draws the themes, not in the Finder. Are you saying you have enabled CI/QE/OpenGL for Chameleon's GUI? I am looking for Chameleon to somehow let the user know which resolution (VESA resolution?), from the list in the supported resolutions shown in the video modes menu, has been used to draw the theme as I understand it will choose the nearest one available from the set resolution in the theme.plist. On a side note though, I have just run 'make' from the files on your branch and used them to boot from and I notice that that build was based on pre7 where the auto PCIroot detection didn't work for me, but rekursor fixed that for pre8 which works great.

In gui.c, line 737 u'll have to add smthing in the like of: dprintf(&gui.screen, "height %d\n", param->height); dprintf(&gui.screen, "width %d\n", param->width);

Maximum resolution for my display (thanks to prasys's EDID reading function) Which is 1280x768x32

Great. I will have a look. Thanks guys. Do I need to do anything in particular or just build with 'make', install the files and boot?

@DieBuche, The indention of the lines you changed is different. Did you perhaps use tabs instead of spaces (or vice versus)? p.s. It would be nice to have a make option to select the target hardware i.e. "desktop" or "notebook" so that certain parts can be included or excluded when they are wanted/unwanted (the latter based on the model selector).

Thanks for the continued support with this DieBuche and I can now confirm I have successfully compiled with the added #define DEBUG 1. But what do I do now? how do I make use of the debug and see the screen resolution reported from the revised lines in gui.c?
