dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xfree86
How do I specify my video card BUS identifier?

I am attaching the logfile herewith after doing the following:

My monitor is Dell 773S. I also tried with Samsung Syncmaster 793s.
Video card is: Intel 82865G
I also did this as someone suggested:
>Make sure that you have `discover' installed (apt-get install
>discover) then try and reconfigure the server again with low priority.
>dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xfree86
Still same resolution!
Please help
Thanks and Regards;
Rituraj

Make sure that you have `discover' installed (apt-get install
discover) then try and reconfigure the server again with low priority.
dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xfree86

Try the above, and if it doesn't help, report back to the list with
details including:
- the version of Debian you are installing
- your video card
> Who has a perfect X server configuration for me??
Depends on the above.
Cheers,
Nick.
