Description of problem: I'm pretty sure this worked in Fedora Core 2. On this Dell Inspiron 3500, equipped with Neomagic 256AV and a 1024x768 LCD display, I can't get system-config-display to let me use anything other than 640x480 or 800x600. I have set the monitor to LCD 1024x768. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): hwdata-0.123-1
Does it work if you set it at that resolution by hand? What's the output of 'kudzu -p -b ddc'?
Yes, it works fine if I edit xorg.conf and add "1024x768" to the right places. [root@eagle root]# kudzu -p -b ddc - class: VIDEO bus: DDC detached: 0 driver: unknown desc: "NeoMagic MagicMedia 256 AV" mem: 2496
Hm, I wonder if that's failing the mode calc for memory.
That would make sense to me

This is due to there being no callback from the colour depth option menu to add resolutions to the resolution option menu. Patch to follow..

Thanks, looks correct. Applied and built in 1.0.22
1.0.22-1 works for me.
I'm having a similar problem with a Dell CPi A366ST (Service Tag: LT133X1). I have my resolution set to 1024x768, color depth to 16 but everytime X restarts it reverts to 800x600 and the depth stays the same. By default the monitor type is "unknown monitor" I have tried setting this to "Dell 1024x768 LCD" but no luck there either. Here's another weird thing though, I purposely broke the xorg.conf by enabling dual head. X generated a new .conf and gave me the system-config-display and everything appeared to be 1024x768. Then when X restarted again and I got dumped back to the login screen 800x600 came back again. system-config-display is 1.0.24 kudzu -p -b ddc - class: VIDEO bus: DDC detached: 0 driver: unknown desc: "NeoMagic MagicMedia 256 AV" mem: 2496 (In reply to comment #0) > Description of problem: > I'm pretty sure this worked in Fedora Core 2.
