Hi, I am a brand new subscriber. I checked last months archive to see if this problem was addressed but it seems not. Here's where I'm at....... System is a Dell Inspiron 8000 laptop with ATI Rage Mobility 8 meg vid card. When I installed LM8.2 the vid probe would not accept any display setting other than Dell laptop display at 1400x1050 and I tried to set the res at 800x600 and 16 bit colour. Well within specs. It seems that I got the 1400x1050 display but it does not allow any other setting. Ctrl / Alt / kb / + or / - have no effect. I tried Dell and generic displays at other resolutions but I keep getting errors and the system returns to the original 1400x1050. I am running fine but the display is pretty tiny and I was wondering if anyone has come across this particular problem. When I was running LM8.1 I had no problem setting alternate resolutions. But I did a re-install and not an upgrade so I don't have my old XF86config-4 file to try. Thoughts? tia, Bill W.
