Ok, Here is the deal.

I have a Dell inspiron 8000 Laptop
512 ram
850 MHz Pentium 3
Ati M4 Mobility Video Card
32MB Video Ram
10 GB hard drive
CDROM and DVD

And A Ultra XGA 15 inch screen with 1600x1200 resolution

Ok here is the Problem.  I got everything to work just great when I installed Red HAt 
7.2 The screen works and I get a great 24 bit 1600 res screen.  But I tryed installing 
Quake 3 Arena and it will only play on the lower left hand side of the screen.  

What I was wondering and can't seem to do is get X to change resolutions for me and 
fill the entire screen.  YOu know like with windows.  I need to alter the resolution 
to be 800x600 but I can't seem to do it.  I can't toogle the res, or just manually set 
it either.  What am I doing wrong?  I am putting my XF86config file  at the end of 
this message.  

Thanks Jon
