915resolution has been dropped with openSUSE 11.1/SLE11. Looks like you've updated your system since openSUSE <= 11.0.

Thanks! I could have sworn that partition got a fresh install since then, but the timestamp on that file does show Sep 2008. O_O The reason I looked in the first place is trying to help a Meego user on the intel-gfx mailing list trying to use an 800x480 LCD lacking EDID and getting no advice that solves his inability to enable that mode. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

Meego uses KMS, so better forget about 915resolution here. Best regards, Stefan Public Key available ------------------------------------------------------ Stefan Dirsch (Res. & Dev.)
