Hi, I am pretty new to linux. So please treat me as pretty novice, please forgive me about that. I have installed SuSE 10.1 on Intel D915GUX mother board with Pentuim4 EM64T processor. My monitor is Samtron 15inch model 56V. The X11 graphics is broken whenever I try to have a resolution higher than 800x600. I tried with different configuration but none did help. I have the xorg.conf.install file as follows: -------------- start paste -------------------------- # generic XFree86 4.x configuration file Section "Files" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/URW/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/uni/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/" ModulePath "/usr/X11R6/lib64/modules" RgbPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb" InputDevices "/dev/ttyS0" InputDevices "/dev/ttyS1" InputDevices "/dev/ttyS2" InputDevices "/dev/ttyS3" InputDevices "/dev/ttyS4" InputDevices "/dev/ttyS5" InputDevices "/dev/ttyS6" InputDevices "/dev/ttyS7" InputDevices "/dev/ttyS8" InputDevices "/dev/psaux" InputDevices "/dev/logibm" InputDevices "/dev/sunmouse" InputDevices "/dev/atibm" InputDevices "/dev/amigamouse" InputDevices "/dev/atarimouse" InputDevices "/dev/inportbm" InputDevices "/dev/gpmdata" InputDevices "/dev/usbmouse" InputDevices "/dev/adbmouse" InputDevices "/dev/input/mice" InputDevices "/dev/input/event0" EndSection Section "ServerFlags" Option "AllowMouseOpenFail" Option "BlankTime" "0" EndSection Section "Module" Load "dbe" Load "extmod" Load "glx" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Driver "kbd" Identifier "Keyboard[0]" Option "Protocol" "Standard" Option "XkbRules" "xfree86" Option "XkbKeycodes" "xfree86" Option "XkbModel" "pc104" Option "XkbLayout" "us" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Driver "mouse" Identifier "Mouse[1]" Option "Protocol" "explorerps/2" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" EndSection Section "Monitor" HorizSync 25-40 Identifier "Monitor[0]" ModelName "Initial" VendorName "Initial" VertRefresh 47-75 UseModes "Modes[0]" EndSection Section "Modes" Identifier "Modes[0]" Modeline "800x600" 29.38 800 816 896 992 600 601 604 617 # 1.
