Yes. I recommend 3.2.3 from that series... it has compiled several
programs that would not build with 2.95.3 or 3.2. (2.95.3 is better
for C, but 3.2.3 is better for C++)

I think they are. Try moving your modes file to /etc/fb.modes and
using it with busybox fbset.

You can also add options to the loadlin line to increase resolution.
But then you need to reboot to change modes.
