1. proposal for /proc/vidinfo

: Is there any elegant way I can retrieve the video mode the system is
: booted in right after bootup, other than grepping kmsg?

: I propose /proc/vidinfo, containing for example "color\nEGA+\n132x44"
: if that's what I boot up in (as a minimum), and that it be updated
: upon each change of video mode.

Hi,
what do you think about "dmesg |grep Console". If you parse this line
you may get every Information you want.
