I have Tiny Core 8.2 installed on my Dell XPS 13 L321X, which has Intel HD 3000 graphics. Native resolution is 1920 x 1080 or 1200, but I can only get (at most) 1024 x x768. I have Xorg 7.7 with xf86-video-intel.tcz installed. XVesa give the same results. Lxrandr shows only 1024 x 768 or 800 x 600.
Is there an extension I'm missing, or is it something else?
-
Did you try to change the Xvesa resolution with xsetup.sh?
Did you try using an Xorg.conf snippet to set the resolution with Xorg-7.7?
Have you tried the modesetting driver with Xorg-7.7 (do not load the xf86-video-intel extension)?
(note also that the xf86-video-intel extension requires the graphics-KERNEL extension)

In Xvesa, xsetup.sh returns 800x600 and 1024x768. (I was incorrect about the native resolution; it is 1366x768, not 1920xanything)
This xorg.conf snippet:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "Monitor Vendor"
ModelName "Monitor Model"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Card0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
Modes= 1366x768
EndSubSection
EndSection
Results in a Failed waiting for X error.
I can't find a driver for the Intel HD 3000 device. Is there one?
Might (I haven't tried it yet) f86-video-intel + graphics-KERNEL work?
-
Yes, that combo is the driver for your Intel card.
-
The graphics-KERNEL extension is a dep of the xf86-video-intel extension and thus should be loaded automatically when xf86-video-intel is loaded.
Note that loading the graphics-KERNEL extension whilst in an X session will probably freeze your machine.

That was it. Thanks!
