res and refresh w/ fb

[Ben Luey <lueyb@carleton.edu>]

How can I set the terminal resolution and refresh rate on my MAtrox
Mystique 220 with frame buffer support. I tried running fbset -xres 1024
-yres 768  and it just brought my monitor into dpms mode.  The commands
in teh kernel documentation don't convert the hexidecal to numbers,
which I need to use lilo to pass the commands and they don't tell me how
to change the refresh mode. 

Thanks,

Ben
