I apologize if this has been asked and answered before, but I've spent
the last couple of hours searching for the answer :(
Anyhow, the problem is that I have a 1.5 inch black border all the way
around my root window. I upgraded to XFree Version 4.1.0.1 today, got
KDE to work, and everything is great, other than the screen size.
My machine is a 770x, running at 1280x1024 and 24bpp.
Here are the interesting sections from my XF86Config-4 file:
===================================
Section "ServerFlags"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Generic Video Card"
Driver "trident"
# Option "UseFBDev" "true"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"

VertRefresh 50-90
Option "DPMS"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "Generic Video Card"
Monitor "Generic Monitor"

SubSection "Display"

EndSubSection

EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"

EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Default Layout"
Screen "Default Screen"
InputDevice "Generic Keyboard"
InputDevice "Configured Mouse"
# InputDevice "Generic Mouse"
EndSection
#Section "DRI"
# Mode 0666
#EndSection
# end of XF86Config
==============================
and here is the captured output of startx. I see where it says that it
isn't going to use any of the modes that I want it to, I just don't
know how to fix it :(
