Hello,

I am having trouble with the screen display on a
laptop.  XFree86 3.2 correctly detects the chipset,
Chips & Technologies 65545, and everything works
OK except that the display is 712x600 instead of
800x600.
Using the option "fix_panel_size" (which does just that)
the display is 800x600.  However, after 4 hours or so the
display goes crazy, either becoming a mess of horizontal
lines or just turning black.
Does anyone know why "fix_panel_size" should work perfectly
at first and then crash later on?

Thanks,
Geoff Martindale
