I got same issue. I am working with a Dell optiplex GX270 with i810 driver for Intel 865 video card and cannot change the resolution. I upgraded to Xfree 4.3 to have the drivers for it. And I could use them but not change the resolution.
Ley me know if you find the solution.
Nothing new.... unfortunately.
I've tried with VESA driver with the same result: it'is impossible to set a different mode than what the Xserver recognize.
I've also tried to use FBDEV and I've found a different behavior: it recognize 1875k of videomem and it runs only at 800x600.
It is useless to explicitely declare a wider video memory.
I've tryed the Accelerated-X drivers. It seems they can manage wide screen only at 1280x768 but not at 1280x800.

Davide
Thanks

Hi all,
I've bought a laptop with Intel 852/855GM graphics chipset and a widescreen 1280x800.
XFree seems to work well but I can't set any different mode than 1024x768, even if I explicitly try to define it as modeline.
Is there anyone has experience on the same problem?
regards
Davide
