Indeed, the specs for the X40 seems to indicate it can't, but booting the other (disgusting) OS installed on the same harddrive outputs [EMAIL PROTECTED] perfectly. Also, see Xorg.log below: > (II) I810(0): Monitor0: Using hsync range of 30.00-83.00 kHz > (II) I810(0): Monitor0: Using vrefresh range of 56.00-75.00 Hz > (II) I810(0): Estimated virtual size for aspect ratio 1.5667 is 1680x1050 > (WW) I810(0): Shrinking virtual size estimate from 1680x1200 to 1600x1200 > (1600x1200,Monitor0) mode clock 162MHz exceeds DDC maximum 150MHz > (--) I810(0): Virtual size is 1600x1200 (pitch 1600) > (**) I810(0): *Built-in mode "1280x1024" > (**) I810(0): *Built-in mode "1024x768" Seems the xorg.conf I used to generate that log is wrong. This is the same part of my current Xorg.log: (II) I810(0): External Monitor: Using hsync range of 30.00-83.00 kHz (II) I810(0): External Monitor: Using vrefresh range of 56.00-75.00 Hz (II) I810(0): Not using built-in mode "1600x1200" (height too large for virtual size) (--) I810(0): Virtual size is 1680x1050 (pitch 1680) (**) I810(0): *Built-in mode "1680x1050" ^ Any idea what this * means? (**) I810(0): Built-in mode "1280x1024" (**) I810(0): Built-in mode "1024x768" (**) I810(0): Built-in mode "800x600" (**) I810(0): Built-in mode "640x480" (II) I810(0): Attempting to use 75.00Hz refresh for mode "1680x1050" (85c) [..] Any idea why the i810 driver attempts to use 75Hz? Maybe if I could get it to try 60Hz at that point would make it work.. I appreciate the suggestions. Any other hints? -- I prefer the dark of the night, after midnight and before four-thirty, when it's more bare, more hollow. http://a.mongers.org
