Asunto: [XFree86] XWindows issue...

I have a Dell Optiplex GX270, Intel 865 graphics, 256MB, 40GB, Dell 1703FP 17" Flat Panel display.
 
Loaded Red Hat 9 on it with no issue.  However, even when I try and change the resolution, I only get 640 x 480 & 16 colors...
 
I am attaching both my XFree86.0.log, as well as my XF86Config files...
 
Any help would be appreciated...
 
Thanks.

you have a BIOS graphics memory restriction.  Information and a patch can
be found here:

Fixes are included in the 4.4 release candidates, so you could try
upgrading.  www.xfree86.org for details.
