Hi,
after days of trying and upgradig to Opensuse 11 I’am daring to write here and ask for help. I am stumped at all.
I try to switch my Fujitsu-Siemens (FSC) Lifeboo P-1610 to Linux.
The only problem is the display.
According to Fujitsu P1610 Graphics Card – Intel 945GM Suse should support the display. I followed all instructions but it stays at 1024x768. :mad:
My “/etc/X11/xorg.conf” contains this

my /etc/sysconfig/videobios contains the lines
VIDEOBIOS_PATCH="yes"
VIDEOBIOS_PARAMETERS="58 1280 768"
and this works because the output of “915resolution -l”

but SaX2 constantly keeps 1024x768 resolution
and this doesn’t surprises because “xrandr” outputs:

I tested many other tips on the internet but nothing helped.
So could anybody give me a hint or even tell me the right terms to google for?
kind regards
