Ahh good point... didn't think of that.
Hmmmm does this point to a potential problem now that sax2 is being shelved? With odd combinations like a widescreen monitor on older video hardware... is this a case of "not going to work"?
C.
Quite so. It looks like a lot of monitors will be 1080p now. It'd be a good "standard" resolution to have.
I copied /etc/X11/xorg.conf from a computer at work (the same GX260 with Intel) and ran sax2. I now have 1024x768 but it's not selectable from KDE4. KDE4 says it's still 800x600. Anyway, that's good enough. I can't spend any more time on the installation. I now have opensuse running on a single computer, something I did not think possible. Thanks everyone.
