I have just installed debian on a very old laptop and have looked this

Debian works beautifully so far... but I can't seem to use my whole
screen: there is always a huge black border.
You have to be specific:
- Which laptop (brand and model)
- Which video card. In doubt, check the output of lspci -nn or
Xorg.log by running grep -i chipset /var/log/Xorg.0.log)
- Which version of Debian (I assume you use Lenny)
When I go to change the screen resolution I only have the option of
800x600 (and 60 or 56Hz refresh rate).
How can I stretch things so it uses up my whole screen?
Xorg didn't auto-detect your configuration.
Regards,
Franklin
