Dear experts,

I am trying to get my Tecra 8200 (1400x1050) running with Xfree 4.1.0.
Up to now the highest resolution I couuld get was 1280x1024, which does
not make use of the whole display area ;-)

So far I think the problem is, that the VESA BIOS reports about a 1280 
display although it actually is a 1400. Furthermore the Xserver module
"trident" then selects 1280 to be the highest resolution :-(

0. Has anybody the same problem, is it known, is there a solution ?

1. Does anyone know how to tell xfree not to probe for display
capablilities 
instead specifying a certain resolution

2. Is there a bugfix for this problem

3. Are there workarounds ?

Your help is highly appreciated. Thx.

Best regards
Christian
