Hello, I'm fairly new to Linux, just installed Suse 10.0 and I can use some help on this. Specs of the laptop: Toshiba Satellite M70-148 (15.4" Wide screen (resolution 1280 x 800)) CPU: Type Mobile Intel Pentium M 760, 2000 MHz (15 x 133) Mobo: TOSHIBA HTW00 (Chipset Intel Alviso i915PM) Graphics: ATI MOBILITY RADEON X700 (256 MB) What I did so far: Installed Suse 10.0 but after loading I got a black screen and had to reset the PC. Read things on this forum and tried installing with xdriver=vesa. Didn't work. Connected a external monitor and the install went fine. Without the external mon. the same problem (black screen). So I changed my xorg.conf. The lower part where it said "radeon" I changed it to "vesa". Restarted without ext. mon. and it went fine (got something on my laptopscreen. Went to the display settings and tried to change the resolution to 1280 x 800. Was not possible. Only 1024 x 768, 800 x 600 and 640 x ??. So I went (after reading a lot more) to the root console and typed 855resolution (and 855resolution -vesa). Message: Unknown VBIOS structure chipset: unknown (id=0x25908086) And now I don't know what to do next. All I want is to have the right resolution (1280 x 800) and make use of the possibilities of the screen. If I should give more info, just tell me how to get it. Thanks in advance -- Met vriendelijke groet, *Bauke P. de Vries *
