So, this isn't the cause unfortunately. > > Jon Jon; Try this. I've attached my xorg.conf file. I'm running a sony S260 with a 1280x800 wide screen. Take the display & monitor sections out and put them in your file. Then restart X (Ctl-Alt-Backspace) Next go to the K-Menu--->System Settings--->Display Go to the hardware tab and select the configure button for the Monitor Type. There should be an entry for "LCD Panel 1280x800" Select this entry and click on th OK button. the settings on the main screen can be anything (mine is 800x600). restart X again and you should be good to go... /Kevin
