switched to the i810 driver, but screen still won't go above 800x600.
what file is causing this? tried using enlightenment, blackbox, and gnome. none will go to 1024x768???

thanks again



only thing I can think of is that your monitor settings aren't right. I had similar problems for a while with my envision en-710e. my horiz sync and vert refresh ranges weren't right and consequently it couldn't get a good set-up for the higher res. I adjusted those numbers to some conservative ranges that fit the monitor specs and problem solved. youmight check the monitor specs and see if you can make that work. be conservative soyou don't fry the monitor.
