Make certain that no bogus copies of XF86Config-4 are hanging around. I once
had a problem getting a 21" monitor to run in 1600x1200 (it stubbornly stuck
to 640x480, 1024x768 virtual...), that, after a day of chasing my tail and
eating my own smoke, turned out to be XF86Config in /root having bogus
values...

Subject: [Newbie]Need help configuring X to use 800x480 for Libretto ff
1100V
Hi Guys!
Just installed Redhat 7.1 and having GREAT Difficulties getting X to run at
the 800x480... I have it running at 800x600 or 640x480 but I still only see
the top 2/3rds of the screen and its unusable. I have some configs I got
from a Japanese site:
http://www.hf.rim.or.jp/~tayamagu/cutting/libretto.html Looks similar to the
configs for the Libretto 110CT
# 800x480
Modeline "800x480" 40 800 864 928 1088 480 481 484 509 +hsync +vsync

These still don't work... I think its a problem with the XF86Config-4 File
under the default screen options if I set it to 800x600 or 800x480 it brings
up the same screen? Does it only take the 800 (800x480) or the 640 (640x480)
part of the resolution and attempt to work it out to fit standard screens?
Looking Forward to any assistance anyone might Have.
