Hi,

After searching through the XFree Xpert mailing list I noticed that couple
of people have similar problem with setting of this video mode on i830
based systems. In my case it is  n5495 HP laptop.

Is there any particular solution to this problem now? or is there anything 
I could do to help solving it?

My card has reported 8MB of stolen ram, which should be enough for this 
mode, but the BIOS still keeps on offering video modes only up to 
1280x1024.

I looked at the source code of the driver, is there 
any reason why the i830 driver uses BIOS to talk to the chip?

p.s. I tried contacting the author (Jeff Hartmann), but it came back as 
undelivered..
