Re: xorg and 1280x800
Looks like a similar configuration to my Fujitsu Lifebook, which
has the same chipset and is running in 1280x768 just fine on my
etch install.
>From my installation log:
Wed Apr 19 04:55:19 BST 2006
Use aptitude to install 915resolution and then edit
/etc/default/915resolution
install x-window-system-core and x-window-system
bingo! X now working with xdm/twm
change XkbLayout from "gb" to "us"...
install xplanet-images
install kde
I think I installed Ubuntu first, saw how it made the screen work,
and then copied that to get Debian working...
