Main problem is that it's not a "standard" resolution as the others are (I agree that it should be regarding the non-respect of the 4/3 ratio). For example VESA defines the following as standard modes: 640x400 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024 1600x1200. Only 640x400 and 1280x1024 don't respect 4/3, which is rather strange, agreed. That said, we could add the resolution, but we don't even have any standard modeline in DrakX for it. -- Guillaume Cottenceau - http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~gc/
