Hi Bill,
I am using:
Compaq Presario 1200
700 Celeron
128MB Ram
Cyberblade i7 3D Video
13.1 display
and the install Xfree 4.0.3
And I used a config file I found on the net specifically for the presario
1200 and I get a 1 1/2 to 2 inch black box around my display with a
small X Windows being displayed in the center. I find whether I use
800x600 or 1024x768 it is the same. Haven't found a solution yet but will
send you my XF86Config.
