Hi,
Clean install of 8.10 (previously running 2003 server), and all updates applied. The screen resolution applet shows 800*600 as the max resolution. grandr also shows 800*600 as the max resolution.
Hardware is a HP ML110 G2, lspci -vv gives this for the graphics card
--------------------------------
0a:03.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage XL (rev 27)
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 4752
Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping+ SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx-
Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx-
Latency: 66 (2000ns min), Cache Line Size: 32 bytes
Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 10
Region 0: Memory at de000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]
Region 1: I/O ports at 4000 [size=256]
Region 2: Memory at dd220000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
[virtual] Expansion ROM at dc000000 [disabled] [size=128K]
Capabilities: [5c] Power Management version 2
Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1+ D2+ AuxCurrent=0mA PME(D0-,D1-,D2-,D3hot-,D3cold-)
Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME-
Kernel modules: atyfb
--------------------------------
The monitor is an Acer AL1706 which is usually connected to an SGI Fuel running at 1280*1024.
After reading several threads on here, I tried changing the refresh rate between 60 and 56 to no avail, then I tried using envyng, which required a clean install to resolve.
To my limited knowledge, its as if its not reading the monitor correctly.
Any suggestion on how to get more than 800*600 would be appreciated.
