However, will only run 640x480. = I naturally went to Intel's site, it stated that issue was fixed in 7.2. = And this appears to be true since 7.3 picked up my card. However, when = trying to increase res thru Xconfigurator or by manually adjusting the = Xconfig-4 file (even to Intel's instructions, using VESA driver instead = of Intel, Also manually entering the H and V refresh rates of the = monitor) and I still get a X server error that says BIOS isn't supported = mode in this BPP , only can support 640x480. Which explains why no = matter what res I set it to, it jumps back to 640x480. =20 So my questions are is anybody running the same laptop as me? If not, = what BIOS is X refering to? I would imagine my system BIOS, since the = video card is picked up and Intel claims its supported by X4.2.0 which I = believe RH 7.3 has. Or is there a specific Monitor I should select. = Since its a laptop, I selected several generic monitors, but it only = likes the 640x80 generic laptop. I even tried selecting Vesa. Any help would be appreciated. Runs OK, It just is hard to see some = things with such a small res. I would settle for 800x600. Dell hasn't = been much help, but gonna see if updating the BIOS does anything. In = the interim thanks for letting me write. If I can help with anything, please let me know to return the favor.
