Usage: fbset [options] [mode]
Valid options:
General options:
-h, --help : display this usage information
--test : don't change, just test whether the mode is valid
-s, --show : display video mode settings
-i, --info : display all frame buffer information
-v, --verbose : verbose mode
-V, --version : print version information
-x, --xfree86 : XFree86 compatibility mode
-a, --all : change all virtual consoles on this device
Frame buffer special device nodes:
