The whole vidmode code to add a modeline, validate it and switch to it is busted. See my recent posts on the topic. Mark, do you know who I should be talking to about design of how it should work? I fixed it here but it really seems like the code is incomplete and I have some questions about design before I try and clean up my patch. -- Billy Biggs [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
