I think there is also a 915 resolution at
www.geocities.com/stomljen/download.html
Unfortunately they didnt help me as I have a laptop with a built in LCD
of 768 pixels (v), and try as I might I cant overide it even when I am
using it on an external monitor/projector with a much higher, but still
valid resolution for the chipset :( Windows seems to be able to do
it ... but not modular X. (I did it using the old xfree on a different
laptop - so I think it might be an modular xorg driver limitation)
