DietPi-Config | Support setting console resolution on ARM with DRM/KMS
Creating a feature request
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe:
- E.g. #5579
- With mainline kernel and DRM/KMS on ARM (no GRUB) it is not so trivial to set the console screen resolution.
Describe the solution you'd like:
- It can be set via kernel command-line: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Kernel_mode_setting#Forcing_modes
- Active DRI devices can be found and their supported modes read out:
for i in /sys/class/drm/*; do [[ -e $i/status ]] && echo "$i: $(<$i/status)"; done
Describe alternatives you've considered:
- There are no alternatives, as long as the image is no shipped with non-mainline kernel/firmware where non-standard bootloader settings, respectively self-explaining kernel command-line arguments are available.
- For X environments, it again needs to be done differently, though.
