Hello All,
I was looking forward towards installing a debian based distro for
my client who uses Mandrake 10.1 on a Celeron 2 Ghz. and Intel 845
glva mobo and Intel ethernet card. However to my surprise, neither
Ubuntu 5.10 live nor kubuntu 6.06 live+install gave a screen
resolution of more than 640 x 480 in spite of the xorg.conf having
entries for 1024 x 768 and 800 x 600.
Sarge works out of the box. So Ubuntu etc should. What is the order of
the resolution in the config file. 1024x768 should be the first
followed by the fall backs. Also your sync params might be wrong.
The order was correct and pre-loaded. What are the sync params? I have
noticed this problem even in Mercury 845 boards.
However Mandriva did not pose any problems.
Regards,
Rony.
