Now I have it working with the right resolution, but I can't go over 16bit colors. My photos don't look very good but at least it works for most common tasks. Or perhaps it isn't even 16, anyway. I'm wondering why X doesn't handle 24 bit, even with videoram defined. Weird... X can

Hi, I made several tests, again, with no success. I've noticed that using 'Option FlatPanel' in xorg.conf makes X fail to find a suitable mode. Whenever I have a display working, xrandr indicates a 1600x??? or 1680x1200. Below is the xrandr output: SZ:Pixels Physical Refresh
