Hello! ok, installed 10.2 on my new dell core 2 duo
laptop. here is the problem (one of):

i cannot change the screen resolution at all. it's
stuck at 1024x768. Yast lets me change to the proper
resolution settings of 1280x800, but when it tests the
new resolution it is testing 1024x768! no matter what
i do when I restart X it always stays at 1024x768. I
even hand-edited /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and at one point
edited out all references to 1024x768, but every time
X is restarted everything is reset including
xorg.conf! 

another thing that is now happening (possibly my fault
from messing around irritated and carelessly) is that
the "Display" section of "Yast Administration" will
very rarely load up now.



here are some details for what they're worth:

chipset: Mobile Intel 945GM Express
native resolution of screen: 1280x800
