Just installed i386 F11 from alpha .iso on hp laptop, then did yum upgrade.
Each time X starts at 800x600. xrandr shows the preferred resolution as
1280x800.
I use xrandr to change to preferred, but how can I set X to start at
1280 x 800? does this require a modeline after all these years?
I'm not a mind reader, so I don't know what your X log contains or what
xrandr reports. But I suspect it's detecting a TV connected that isn't
really there. And since the default placement policy is clone (because
we suck), we'll try to set things up so all outputs have the same mode.
If you want to disable an output at configure time, see the dualhead
setup instructions here:
http://intellinuxgraphics.org/dualhead.html
Particularly the bit about Option "Ignore".
If you'd set the resolution with gnome-display-properties this would get
remembered for you when you log in. gdm would still be wrong though.

No xorg.conf, but yes X log finds a TV out:
(II) intel(0): EDID for output TV1
(II) intel(0): Output VGA1 disconnected
(II) intel(0): Output LVDS1 connected
(II) intel(0): Output DVI1 disconnected
(II) intel(0): Output DVI2 connected
(II) intel(0): Output TV1 disconnected
(II) intel(0): Using fuzzy aspect match for initial modes
(II) intel(0): Output LVDS1 using initial mode 1024x768
(II) intel(0): Output DVI2 using initial mode 1024x768
not clear why it settled on 800x600, but...
I used gnome-display-properties as you suggested. That worked. Thanks.
This new laptop, an hp g50, has an intel gm45 chipset:
(II) intel(0): Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) Mobile Intel® GM45
Express
Chipset
(--) intel(0): Chipset: "Mobile Intel® GM45 Express Chipset"
with an hdmi port. Using the F11 series intel drivers ( now
xorg-x11-drv-i810-2.6.0-6.fc11.i586 ) is it possible to actually use the
hdmi port to drive an 1080p or 1080i projector?
I remember posts that hdmi for the intel driver was a Work In Progress.
Still? Any ETA?
