Define 'cannot use'. I haven't had any such problems on a similar if not the same machine (TiBook IV), although I prefer 1152x768 for the aspect ratio. > I made two test and noticed the same screen corruption: > 1. mplayer switching to 1024x768 Note that it's usually a bad idea to use anything but the panel's native resolution for video playback because the video overlay's scaling filters are optimized for video and provide better video scaling quality than the normal RMX scaling filters. > 2. cloning LCD and an external monitor at 1024x768 This doesn't require running the internal LCD at the same resolution either.
