Dear All,

I'm having problems getting an onboard i845 VGA to work @ 1024 x 768 in
RedHat 8.0 => It only wants to work @ 800 x 600
Upgrading to e newer version of RedHat/Fedora is not an option for me :-(
Hope someone will be able to help me out here

This is the error I get in /var/log/XFree86.0.log
(II) I810(0): Monitor0: Using hsync range of 30.00-61.00 kHz
(II) I810(0): Monitor0: Using vrefresh range of 56.00-76.00 Hz
(II) I810(0): Not using mode "1024x768" (no mode of this name)

1024).
