I tried that on a B4 running joyride-2301 and it did not work. Xrandr reports 1200x900 as min and max resolutions. Adding a mode gave no error, but switching to that mode gave "Configure crtc 0 failed". This is xorg-x11-drv-geode 0:2.10.0-1.olpc3.1, which was added to joyride-2269 on Aug 7 so I assumed it is the version you were talking about. - Bert - _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
