I have this working, however i cant remember my method for working it out. I use /usr/local/bin/915resolution 4d 1440 900 16 (in an rc script /usr/local/etc/rc.d/915res )
my xorg.conf (relevant bits) Section "Device" Identifier "Card0" Driver "i810" VendorName "Intel Corporation" BoardName "Mobile Integrated Graphics Controller" BusID "PCI:0:2:0" Option "DRI" "true" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Card0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 Subsection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1440x900" "1024x768" "800x600" ViewPort 0 0 EndSubsection EndSection I'm not certain why this works since I'm setting the mode to 1440x900 in 16bits but it does. (from xdpyinfo) screen #0: print screen: no dimensions: 1440x900 pixels (302x191 millimeters) resolution: 121x120 dots per inch depths (7): 24, 1, 4, 8, 15, 16, 32 root window id: 0x5d depth of root window: 24 planes number of colormaps: minimum 1, maximum 1 Vince Michael W.
