xserver-xorg-video-i810 now only displays 640x480
I have just restarted my computer after having been away for a few days
and the display has come up in 640x480 mode and that seems to be the
only option. I have NOT changed xorg.conf so my guess is that it was a
recent upgrade of the video driver or some other xorg server things
that have made this happen.
the relevant part of xorg.conf
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "Intel 965G"
Monitor "PLE430"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 1
Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "832x624" "800
x600" "720x400" "640x480"
EndSubSection
... (different depths 4,8,15,16 in here, all the same otherwise)
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "832x624" "800
x600" "720x400" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection
looking at Xorg.0.log I get the following lines which I think explains
that it cant find these modes.
(II) I810(0): PLE430: Using default hsync range of 28.00-33.00 kHz
(II) I810(0): PLE430: Using default vrefresh range of 43.00-72.00 Hz
(II) I810(0): Not using mode "1280x1024" (no mode of this name)
(II) I810(0): Not using mode "1152x864" (no mode of this name)
(II) I810(0): Not using mode "1024x768" (no mode of this name)

(II) I810(0): Not using mode "720x400" (no mode of this name)
(II) I810(0): Increasing the scanline pitch to allow tiling mode (640 ->
1024).
(--) I810(0): Virtual size is 640x480 (pitch 1024)
(**) I810(0): *Built-in mode "640x480"
(II) I810(0): Attempting to use 60.00Hz refresh for mode "640x480" (850)
(==) I810(0): DPI set to (75, 75)
Can anyone point me in the right direction to fix this - its a bit hard
using the computer at the 640x480 resolution.
