Re: Trouble getting my screen resolution correct.



Does your X86Config-4 file contain a modeline for 1280x1024?

The xserver contains some internal modelines for "normal resolutions" but 
requires you add a modeline for others.  I had the same problem trying to get 
1152x864.  You might try xvidtune to generate a modeline, I am sure there are 
other tools available, or if you have a copy of an XF86config file for XFree86 
version 3 which had worked for your video card and monitor you can copy this 
to your XF86Config-4 file, below is where I placed my modeline in my 
XF86Config-4 file.

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"Matrox Mystique 220"
	Driver		"mga"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
	Identifier	"Sony MultiScan 17sf II"
	HorizSync	31-65
	VertRefresh	50-120
	Option		"DPMS"

Modeline  "1152x864"   92    1152 1208 1368 1474   864  865  875  895

EndSection
