Hi Alain, Thanks. I am sorry, but, as the previous versions, this also does not work in my Compal CY27. The first version (0.1) does not list the modes properly. The second version (0.2) lists the modes properly, replaces the mode (800x600 by 1024x768, in my case), but X is not able to find th

Hi, Still the 855GM problem... :-( Reading the modes listed in the X log file, I realized that the available modes (800x600 and 640x480, in my case), have the "ModeAttributes" parameter value set to 0x9b, while the unavailable modes have this parameter set to 0x9a. When I use 855resolution to

Hi, Thank you Alain for your work. I’ve tried your 855resolution on my Dell 510m that I purchased the other day, but I haven’t had any success so far, presumably due to my lack of understanding regarding the XF86Config file and how to set things up. I’m trying to install SUSE 9.1. I would very m
