Comment 1 Andy Burns 2006-08-24 21:05:36 UTC
Description of problem:
Running on a Dell D800 laptop with Geforce 4200Go, as I remember it FC3/FC4
detected the inbuilt nvidia ok, but required manual tweaking of modelines to
work properly with the 16:9 inbuilt LCD panel, FC5 detected the LCD panel
correctly out of the box, now with FC6T2+updates xorg has reverted to using the
VESA driver, which is much slower and also doesn't support the proper 16:9 LCD
resolutions.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

xorg-x11-drv-nv.i386                     1.2.0-3.fc6            installed

xorg-x11-drv-vga.i386                    4.1.0-2.1              installed
