I have an HP Pavilion Laptop (ZE4100) with a SXGA+ screen (1400x1050)
that I am triple booting with Solaris 9, XP and Suse 8.1. I found
a mode line for the screen to use with a script that converts to Solaris format,
and VESA mode is working fine in Solaris, at 1400x1050, 24-bit.

However, Suse 8.1 just refuses to go above 1024x768 in 16-bit, regardless
of how I configure the monitor. I've tried both VESA and LCD settings,
and have not had any success. The SaX2 interface will let me use a
higher resolution setting, but when it comes down to testing, it just
goes to 1024x768.

The ATI IGP-340 is a new, and not yet supported card, which is why I'm
using the VESA mode. I would have thought if I could get Solaris to do
it, that it would be a cinch with Linux.

Thoughts or ideas?

Thanks,

Ben
