Yes, put grub.conf back to it's original content (replace the vga=775 line with vga=normal) and modify the "screen" section in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to look like this: Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Card0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection EndSection FWIW, all I did was to add the "1280x1024" and "1024x768" entries in the 'Modes' line and then restart X and you should end up with your desired resolution(s).
i did that, too, but it won't start X with anything higher than 800x600 in the Modes line. when it didn't work manually, i changed it in the gui, but when i restarted it just went to a blank screen until i changed it back to 800x600. then i modified grub with the vga line, and as i said it worked at 1280x1024, but then no hardware acceleration anymore. Xorg.0.log complained about the h/vsync, but i'm using the values provided by samsung. i'm completely baffled. :?: thanks, s.c.
