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
