Sounds somewhat like it, but there could still be decisive differences - much of this software abounds with conditional compilation statements implementing target specific functionality - or non-functionality. But I don't have the code around now, and not _quite_ the spare time needed to analyze it... > The probably difference is that I use a xorg.conf file to specify This could be a factor, the auto detection mechanisms aren't always too brilliant in guessing what can be used and what should be left, that's right. But there might be other factors, too. E.g., if the driver cannot get sufficient memory for a higher resolution, it cannot support it. And that's completely outside the drivers competence. Anyway, it's not easy to tell why Julio's machine doesn't provide full resolution when using the VESA driver. -- -- (Weitergabe von Adressdaten, Telefonnummern u.ä. ohne Zustimmung nicht gestattet, ebenso Zusendung von Werbung oder ähnlichem) ----------------------------------------------------------- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, S.
