I tried going to the URL listed above. It is for sale. Does Fedora know this???? Hmmm, a quick google shows that the site has moved to www.winischhofer.net. Perhaps a quick update request should be filed for the driver so it reflects the correct URLs. Lots of good information on that site, including a section on troubleshooting problems. I don't know if you've been there or not, or if its even up-to-date (the driver seems to be dated 2005) enough to be useful, but it might be worth looking it over. 3) The combination of the SIS driver and the default monitor ends up throwing away most of your higher resolution modes leaving you with 960x600 or less for your resolution. > [ 48.231] (II) SIS(0): Replaced entire mode list with

your problem lies, though I'm not sure what's different here, other than there is *NO* mention of EDID anywhere in your log file. Does the SiS driver not support EDID? If that is the case, you may wish to create a file for your Monitor that specifies the the correct limits of your monitors hsync, vrefresh, and max pixel clock and put it in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d directory. Something like: > Section "Monitor" > Identifier "Monitor0" > VendorName "Monitor Vendor" > ModelName "LCD Panel 1280x800" > HorizSync 31.5 - 90.0 > VertRefresh 60.0 - 60.0 > Option "dpms" > EndSection That section above is from my laptop, change the values to match your monitor. If you specify the correct HorizSync and VertRefresh for your monitor, maybe the SIS driver won't through away the modes you are looking for.... -- Kevin J.
