ok. don't think that was for me, but was having a look at that log file and noticed a warning about "Bad V_BIOS checksum" now and then. i810 (intel driver) detecting VESA BIOS stuff and "going" thru video modes 640x480,800x600,1024x768, a few 0x0 modes (?) *Note!Only 1280x800 is now in my xorg.conf file.* it tells us not using the various modes as vrefresh or hsync out of range. Then finally: (II) I810(0): Monitor[0]: Using hsync range of 30.00-62.00 kHz (II) I810(0): Monitor[0]: Using vrefresh range of 43.00-60.00 Hz (II) I810(0): Not using mode "1280x800" (no mode of this name) (--) I810(0): Virtual size is 1024x768 (pitch 1024) (**) I810(0): Built-in mode "1024x768" (**) I810(0): Built-in mode "800x600" (**) I810(0): Built-in mode "640x480" (**) I810(0): Display dimensions: (303, 190) mm (**) I810(0): DPI set to (85, 102) (II) Loading sub module "fb" (II) LoadModule: "fb" What does it all mean? i dunno. i have this sneaking hunch i should be adding something as a kernel parameter perhaps??? currently grub has vga=0x314, which i think is some kind of 1024x768 resolution, but how can this be changed to widescreen? to best of my knowledge it can't?? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
