I did some (minor) progress : - vidcontrol -i mode give only 640x480x4 maximum resolution before I realize that loading vesa.ko could help. - With "kload vesa.ko" I get 1024x768x8 which could be ok for my laptop. - I am very surprized to have to add : HorizSync 30.0 - 82.0 VertRefresh 50.0 - 75.0 to the Monitor section for a laptop with a LCD screen. Is to due to the vesa driver ? - X start correctly but is unable to go higher than 640x480 which seem strange because -- The panel resolution is recognized :(II) VESA(0): PanelID returned panel resolution 1024x768 -- The mode exist Mode: 105 (1024x768) -- but (II) VESA(0): Not using mode "1024x768" (no mode of this name) My current xorg.conf & the Xorg.0.log coud be read here http://henripierre.charles.free.fr/Xorg-Vesa/ Will I need to resurrect the modeline from the old video monitor ? --=20 HPC=A0=A0 http://ticetmensonges.blog.free.fr
