Hmm, X might not be using the highest resolution listed in your xorg.conf, there is some interrogating the monitor to see what it supports stuff that doesn't always work. If you run "xrandr" in a terminal what resolution does it report is being used, and does it list any other options? ________________________________________________________ Robert McWilliam [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.ormiret.com Conscious is when you are aware of something and conscience is when you wish you weren't. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
