Hello All,
I was looking forward towards installing a debian based distro for my client who uses Mandrake 10.1 on a Celeron 2 Ghz. and Intel 845 glva mobo and Intel ethernet card. However to my surprise, neither Ubuntu 5.10 live nor kubuntu 6.06 live+install gave a screen resolution of more than 640 x 480 in spite of the xorg.conf having entries for 1024 x 768 and 800 x 600.
Sarge works out of the box. So Ubuntu etc should. What is the order of the resolution in the config file. 1024x768 should be the first followed by the fall backs. Also your sync params might be wrong.
