Re: [XFree86] I cannot change my X resolution.
I'm having the same problem as he is, and I use 4.3. My card is different though, an S3 Pro Savage DDR, I sent all the details to the mailing list a few days ago...

[XFree86] I cannot change my X resolution.
My X resolution is stuck at 640x480. If I edit the XF86Config to change the default resolution, my X server crashes until It is set back to 640x480. I have tried numerous things. I have upgraded the video card driver and changed it from 16 bit to 8 bit color. Still no effect or a negative effect. Well for me 640x480 is just not acceptable but for some reason that seems to be the only resolution it likes. I donṫ understand, under windows I could have 16 million colors and have the resolution at 1400x?. I've included a copy of my XF86Config file, the output of "XFree86 -version", and my video card. Any help is greatly appreciated.
