Here is the problem; the HorizSync range is too small. The 800x600 and 1024x768 modes have the following hsyncs [quoted from the same XF86Config]: ># 800x600 @ 56 Hz, 35.15 kHz hsync ># 1024x768 @ 87 Hz interlaced, 35.5 kHz hsync So, change that HorizSync to "HorizSync 31.5 - 35.6" or something (see your monitor's specifications if you have them; but if 800x600 works in SVGAlib (or DOS), setting that HorizSync should be safe), and it should work. >Section "Screen" > Subsection "Display" > Modes "640x480" "800x600" "1024x768" And here, the first mode in this Modes list is the mode that X starts by default; but you can cycle between them all with Ctrl-Alt-+ (the + key on the numeric keypad). (On a more general note, I've always thought that "There is no mode definition named "xxx"" is not an informative error message when the real `error' is that the mode definition was deleted because it didn't fit the monitor's specifications (HorizSync, VertRefresh). But I guess we'd need to talk to the XFree86 folks about that.) -- -=- Rjs -=- [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
