by chance, have you tried the NeoMagic driver? i installed xserver-neomagic_1.1.0-1-1.deb and then followed the steps in the doc files to get this driver working. it turned out to be one of the easiest x configurations i've done :) although i'm working with a dell latitude lm 166, which has a maximum resolution of 800x600, in reading the XF86Config file that came with the deb package, it would seem possible that your machine should be supported at 1024x768 (at least your Thinkpad model is listed as supported). good luck, serge -- ______________________________________________________________ Sergio J.
