I've always had good luck running X -configure and taking the H & V as well as the chipset values out of the XF86Config.new that is created and plugging them into old conventional xv86config program. It always seems to work. ed Quoting Andy Sparrow <spadger@best.com>: | | > now I've upgraded X from 3.3.6 to 4.10 and I can't | > get the box to go to 1024x768 ... which it ran fine with under | > 3.3.6 at 16 bpp-- | | My suggestion would be: | | i) Lie about the Hsync/VertRefresh parameters as necessary - they don't | seem | to make much difference - although at least one person has reported | blowing | a laptop screen, so I wouldn't advise going beserk... | | ii) Omit the specifications for the "standard" modes, and it'll use the | built-ins. | | | This works fine for 16 bit XGA for me: | | HorizSync 24-80 | VertRefresh 39-80 | | Subsection "Display" | Depth 16 | Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "536x344" "640x480" "320x240" | "352x240" | "352x280" "352x288" "536x344" | ViewPort 0 0 | EndSubsection | | (The "odd" modes are only there for full-screen movie playing) | | ObDisclaimer: It's your screen, not mine.
