Question: I have some software that requests the terminal window,
(Not under X), be
80 x 27. The default I believe is 80 X 24.

Is there a way to change this? I am testing 3.2.0.

Thank You
Tom C.

(Actually 80 � 25).


At boot monitor prompt, try to set
console=4003
If your video adapter is fully VGA compliant, the resolution in MINIX
(ie. after booting) should change to 80 � 28, which would perhaps fit
your needs.
Details and other settings are in monitor(8).

Thank You

This worked correctly, and now I can continue my testing.

Again, Thank You for your help.
