Hi Eric,

I got the same problem yesterday (on a TP770x, 13,7", Suse 6.1). Maybe the
only thing you
have to do is, to change the "HorizSync" and "VertRefresh".

Start "XF86Setup" and change to the register "Monitor" (You can also start
it
with Yast).

Select the 1280x1024 monitor and modify HSync manually to "30-65" and
VRefresh to "50-70".

Save the configuration an start your x-server.

Greetings from Germany

Howdy All!

I know everyone is very busy with other important developments such as the
tpctl tool and MWave petitions, but this Xwindows is really getting to me!
I have messed with it for awhile now and it just won't cooperate!
I am running on a TP770X with SuSe 6.1, when attachted to my docking
station and a G712 IBM monitor it works right away with the YAST X86 config
tool, amazing!

 I put all of the files from Bill's site in my system at the following
locations:

-->  XFREE86_SVGA   in root and then unzipped.
-->  SuperProbe in /usr/bin/X11
-->  XF86Config in /etc (not in /etc/X11 as my SuSe reads the config from
/etc)

Further when I startX, I get messages that it recognizes the Cyber 9397dvd
card and several SVGA messages that all is going well until:

SVGA: Max allowed dot-clock: 230.000MHz
SVGA: There is no mode definition named "1280x1024"

_X11TransSocketUnixConnect:Can'tConnect: errno = 111


then the Xserver crashes.......so I am back to the docking station and an
IBM Monitor that works great on 1280x1024!
Shit!

Any ideas???
