I tried to find out the same info -- with no success. The only possible solution is to try and use xrandr to change the resolution after X is started. Use a combination of CVT (to create modelines) and xrandr to to change the resolutions. Nasa BTW: I'm still working on that for my monitor (check earlier thread started by me) _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
