I've installed Suse 9.0 on a Sony VGN-B1XP laptop which
has an Intel 855 chipset and a 1400x1050 LCD.
Under XFree86 4.3.0 the best resolution I could achieve

was no mode of name "1400x1050".
I tried installing 4.4.0 as someone suggested that this

Apparently the driver can only initialize resolutions that are specified
in the video bios, but your laptop, like mine, does not include the
