I have added a "1280x854" line to all color depths in XF86Config-4 and I commented all modeline definitions which were generated by KNOPPIX. Now what I see on the screen is a really small copy of the whole desktop, probably 640x480! Another problem is that when I switch to a text console using alt+F1, I can't see any text. The screen is running with some lines on it. After installing KNOPPIX, I apt-get to unstable, so I think, now, I have XFree86 4.2. Any idea here????
