Hello,
I have just installed Debian 4.0r4 on a Dell Vostro 1200. My graphics
card is Intel GM965. I want to use the 1200x800 resolution that my
screen allows however vesa only allows 1024x768. I installed
xserver-xorg-video-intel driver from synaptic. The driver's readme
file recommends that I add:
Section "Device"
Identifier "intel"
Driver "intel"
EndSection
But after doing so, X simply crashes. Can anyone using high resolution
with the same chipset on Etch help me out?
Thanks,
Nishita

Try "i810"
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82G965 Integrated Graphics
Controller (rev 02)
I use 1680x1050 on a similar chipset (G965), my xorg.conf is as follows:
