Dear List,
I have installed Debian GNU/Linux, and have managed to get X up and
running. However, I am unable to get a resolution higher than 800x600.
I have tried changing the XF86Config-4 manually as well as using
xf86config, but with little success. Could you please tell me how to
get 1024x768 resolution.

try `dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86` select i810 for the vga driver. and when asked for resolution select 1024x768 you'll also need to configure your monitor well.


Another thing is that I actually installed Knoppix and upgraded to Debian unstable. What I noticed was that the upgrade downloaded many packages which were not part of Knoppix (and which I didn't need either!). I used the command apt-get dist-upgrade. How do I make sure I can perform upgrades only of those packages which are already installed on my system?

Knoppix is a mixture of testing + unstable. Most of the additional
packages downloaded might be dependent packages.
