Only the 800x600 and 640x480 are available while previously 1028x786 was
functional and I could switch
to it with cntrl ++. The higher resolution had been available on both
woody and sarge kernels(stock).

Yes, all but the 1280x1024 resolution which my monitor doesn't support.
Actually, after adding the 1024x786 entry and rebooting the resolution
looks finer but using cntrl-alt-++ only
cycles through 2 resolutions. I need a bash command that explicitly shows
the screen resolution
to be sure. Kmow of one?
Thanks for the reply,
Leonard
xvidtune (1x) - video mode tuner for XFree86
You can view, and adjust resolutions, with xvidtune.
xdpyinfo (1x) - display information utility for X
I would also suggest you try a lower color depth, such as 16, to see
if that works better. I forgot to mention that in the last post.
I default to 16 here.

Thanks, I've used xdpyinfo | grep dimensions per Angelina's post and get :
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ xdpyinfo | grep dimensions
dimensions: 800x600 pixels (282x212 millimeters)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
When i run xvidtune:
Vendor: , Model:
Num hsync: 1, Num vsync: 1
hsync range 0: 28.00 - 50.00
vsync range 0: 43.00 - 75.00
Video are not settable on this chip
had to hit cntrl c to get prompt back
did a --help and read manual to see if I was missing something. Doesn't
seem to be.
I'm really at a lost here as in the past I could switch between all
resolutions.
I'll try a lower color depth and get back.
