SP> 800x600 at 16bpp works fine and is as high as the card can go. Yes, I have found out exactly the same things after lurking around for a while. Thanx a lot for your help and advice. Especially for pointing me to Joey Hess's archive, and suggesting to forget my Debian-2.0 and the CD-ROM in favor of an installation from the web. I have now a very neat running Debian system. And it performs pretty well. A couple of things, though, are still to be found out, like * sound * ppp with my combined modem/ethernet PC card * check the CDROM * get netscape to run (4.07 does not) * choose a wm/desktop * get some work done ;-) Cheers, == Uwe ==
