Looks to me like the server is telling you it doesn't know how to generate a resolution of 1360x768. If this was a CRT, I'd say to provide a custom modeline in the xorg.conf file. Since you've got a LCD, I don't know if this is the correct solution or not. -- Mark _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.freedesktop.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: arch...@mail-archive.com
