Title: RE: [Xpert]Having trouble getting Xfree86 working on my laptop.

It should be the same as my current laptop (IBM 760XD), if so, then you need to use the SVGA server @ 1024x768x16bpp with the monitor as Generic LCD panel 1024x768 (personally, I specify one of the IBM TFT Panels (something revision b)).

Subject: [Xpert]Having trouble getting Xfree86 working on my laptop.


I have an IBM Thinkpad 760ED with a trident TGUI chipset (not sure
which one I can't get a definative answer.)

Under 3.3.6 Everything worked great. Under 4.1.0 I only get to results
under the vga driver I get a 320x200 screen that has been magnified by
about 2x, or under the trident driver all I get is a garbled screen.

I have already tried every Option that is listed in the trident man
page. I have even tried compiling framebuffer support into the kernel
and using the framebuffer driver. Nothing has worked.

I really don't want to move back back to 3.3.6.

I have to believe that SOMEONE out there has seen this problem and
knows the fix.

Anybody?

d.p.
