G'day John,
Original message:
Has anyone gotten X to work on a Presario Laptop model
#1277? One of my co-workers is trying to get Linux
installed on his laptop and it seems the lcd display won't
work for him under X. :-(
I don't know if you want to try this.
What I ended up doing to get my Gateway Solo 2300 working was to set it as a
Generic Multiscan monitor, set the appropriate resolutions and away it went.
No matter how much I tried I could not get it to work properly using the
Laptop monitor option.
The end result was X in 800x600 with 16 bit colour.
cya
