How ever full screen video / stream video (youtube) works super good much better then ubuntu very smooth, and i can run the games talked about in this thread.
*How i wish that we had a good working real 3D driver*
Can anyone confirm whether this driver should also work on the Intel D201GLY2A board with Ubuntu 8.10? I can't get it to work...
Hi all,
I'm struggling increasing the screen resolution to 1200x800 using the driver provided in this threat by Barros Lee. The maximum I get is 800x600.
I have the following adapter in my laptop (Acer Aspire 3003WLMi)
archie@home:~$ lspci | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 661/741/760 PCI/AGP or 662/761Gx PCIE VGA Display Adapter
Under Ubuntu 8.05, everything worked fine using this xorg.conf settings:

Find attached the Xorg.0.log when I start X using my old xorg.conf.
Did anyone have a similar problem and found a solution for that?
Cheers
Uwe
I get the same problem as Uwe.
I've tried it on exactly the same laptop (Acer Aspire 3003WLMi). The maximum I get is 1024x768 with xorg.conf like follows:
It worked on Ubuntu 7.04.Code:Section "Device" identifier "Generic Video Card" boardname "sis" busid "PCI:1:0:0" driver "vesa" screen 0 EndSection Section "Monitor" identifier "Generic Monitor" vendorname "Generic" modelname "Flat Panel 1280x800" HorizSync 31.5-90 VertRefresh 60 modeline "1280x800@60.00" 83.46 1280 1344 1480 1680 800 801 804 828 -hsync +vsync gamma 1.0 EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Default Screen" Device "Generic Video Card" Monitor "Generic Monitor" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" depth 24 modes "1280x800@60" EndSubSection EndSection
Any suggestions will be appreciated as I've tried anything that comes to my mind twice.
@majkelpl
:You need to set your driver to "sis" , instead of "vesa"
@captainarcher
:disable your Modeline, by putting # in front of it.
and enable your HorizSync and VertRefresh by leaving # away.
also I guess you also best disable all the other extra modelines/methamodes etc.
Here's my Xorg.conf.
This is what keeps my sis 771/671 running in 1280x800

Thanks mhgsys, but unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be that easy. I removed all these settings but still, I only get 800x600
@Captainarcher.
I just saw you need another driver then I do myself.
You have a different videocard
I'm pretty sure your Xorg.conf isn't the real problem here,
I guess you're trying to enable a sis 771/671 driver on a sis 661/741/760
You should delete all the sis driver files and download the correct ones.
Good luck with finding them .
mhgsys.
adding the refresh rates to the conf file worked, thanks
Hey guys
I got the 2d drivers for intrepid today
Finally got them working =]
Compiz says it can't run because of "software rasterizer"
Is there anything i can do about that or is it a lost cause ?
