fb video output error

[horst]

Compiling, making, ... vlc 0.7.0 works fine on my (Suse) linux (9.0). But when I try to play a video with "vlc /video/video.mpg" the message "[00000295] fb video output error: cannot get terminal mode (Das Argument ist ungültig)" appears twice. I hear the sound of the video but no picture appears.
What can I do to get it working??
Thanks...

Are you trying from a console, or X ?

Has the kernel fb enabled ?

I'm running it in a console under KDE. I don't know if my kernel has fb enabeld. How can I find out?
