I've got the issue that many other has got too.

I wonder if there's any way to force the intel810-driver to use the resolution 1400x1050 even if I don't think that it can.

Wouldn't that be a solution to this issue?

Regards,

Marwin

hi, Marwin,

It's a video bios problem, not reporting all the possible resolutions.

I wrote a patch to set the 1400x1050 resolution. It seems to work well on different laptop. You can try it at : http://perso.wanadoo.fr/apoirier/

Regards

Alain

I tried it but it don't solve my problem. I get some really strange resolutions when I run it.

Some other ideas?

Regards,
Marwin

If you know that you'r screen is capable to handel 1400x1050, do this:

855 resolution 3c 1400 1050

Restart X. And it should work!

i am trying to use 855 resolution to get a higher one on my laptop, but it doesn't work as expected.. 855resolution -l lists the mode, i can changhe them also (i added 1400x1050 in "50" mode, but then when i startx:
Code:
 My monitor: Using hsync range of 30.00-212.00 kHz
My Monitor: Using vrefresh range of 48.00-160.00 Hz
Not using mode "1400x1050" (no mode of this name)
Virtual size is 1024x768 (pitch 1024)
Built-in mode "1024x768"
Built-in mode "800x600"
DPI set to (75,75)
...


It is strange because just before that i get in the logs:

[code]Mode: 30 (1400x1050)
ModeAttributes: 0x9a
.....
.....

(i noticed that inly 800x600 and 1024x768 have a "*" in front of the Mode: definition in the logs)

any ideas?

Hmm, can you try to add a valid 1400x1050 modeline definition into your Monitor section :

Modeline "1400x1050" 129.44 1400 1432 1920 1952 1050 1071 1081 1103
