I used to use a Dell M70 laptop with a 1920x1200 display. It had an "Nvidia Quadro FX Go 1400" card which worked just fine with Plan 9. It's been years since I used it, but I remember I had to boot the laptop in Linux and dump the modeline out of X somehow. I don't remember the specifics on how to do that, but then I just pasted it into vgadb and set the options in plan9.ini and everything worked great. I doubt it will help anyone, but here are the settings I used: plan9.ini: | monitor=dellm70 | vgasize=1920x1200x32 vgadb: | dellm70=1920x1200x32 | clock=162 | shb=2020 ehb=2108 ht=2160 | vrs=1201 vre=1204 vt=1250 | hsync=+ vsync=+
