I've got a new laptop (eMachines M6805 with AMD64) with the stated resolution. It has an ATI Radeon 9600 Mobility chip with 64 MB graphics memory. Unfortunately, ATI has not produced a Linux driver for it, so until I can find one, I'm using "ati fbdev", which I assume is a framebuffer device. I discovered by trial and error that the vendor-independent VESA driver also works. With the fbdev, I only have standard monitor options to choose from, so I picked 1024x768. Is it possible to use custom resolutions with frame buffer devices (or the VESA device)? If so, how can I determine the frequencies to use and the appropriate modeline? The owner's manual is woefully lacking in technical details. Thanks.
