Ah, now there's the rub, that's exactly what I do and can't seem to get a working XF86Config out of XF86Setup. What I get from XF86Setup is what looks like a 640x480 screen in the upper left hand window of the screen with enough room left over for what might be an 800x600 screen. Now Sony claims that the VAIO PCG-505TR should work up to 1024x768. Right now I'd be happy with 800x600. If I do save the aforementioned XF86Setup when I attempted to start X up I get a 640x480 display. hmmm? On Tue, 6 Jul 1999, Eric I. Arnoth wrote: > I recently set up a friend's VAIO for him.
