1440x900 on Intel is not possible anymore
Last modified: 2008-01-16 20:36:53 UTC
I have an Intel Corporation 82845G/GL integrated graphics card and a Samsung 19" SM 931BW LCD display. When I installed openSUSE 10.3, everything worked fine at first. I could set a resolution of 1440x900 and I was happy. But I once started my computer only to get a lower resolution (1368x768) and now I can not set 1440x900 anymore (I can set it, but my Xorg still starts with 1368x768 resolution). I thought it might be because of an update. So I installed a fresh openSUSE 10.3 from a KDE Install CD. But I still have the same problem. So I tried the Ubuntu LiveCD. And I was stunned, because it started with a 1440x900 resolution. So I saved their /etc/X11/xorg.conf and copied it into the installed openSUSE, but nothing changed. My original SaX2-generated xorg.conf and Ubuntu xorg.conf are attached. xdpyinfo from Ubuntu and openSUSE are attached too.

> Should i also attach Xorg.0.log from that Ubuntu LiveCD? This would be nice, yes. (II) intel(0): Output VGA using initial mode 1366x768 As workaround add Option "PreferredMode" "1440x900" to ' Section "Monitor" ' of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf. You probably can also switch to the right resolution by running 'xrandr'. Let me know if this works for you.
Yes, it is works for me. Thank you a lot!
