[915resolution] dell mini 9 correct resolution

(1/3) > >>

I'm having problems setting the correct resolution on my mini9.  I have installed 915resolution but it did not help.  After doing a 915resolution -l   I noticed that my optimal settings are not listed.  1024 x 600 24bit.  800 x 600 16bit is the closest.  So what do I have to do?

tinypoodle:
What's the native resolution?

Juanito:
Here's what I get:
--- Code: ---# 915resolution -l
Intel 800/900 Series VBIOS Hack : version 0.5.3

Chipset: 855GM
BIOS: TYPE 2
Mode Table Offset: $C0000 + $36f
Mode Table Entries: 21

Mode 30 : 640x480, 8 bits/pixel
Mode 32 : 800x600, 8 bits/pixel
Mode 34 : 1024x768, 8 bits/pixel
Mode 38 : 1280x1024, 8 bits/pixel
Mode 3a : 1600x1200, 8 bits/pixel
Mode 3c : 1920x1440, 8 bits/pixel
Mode 41 : 640x480, 16 bits/pixel
Mode 43 : 800x600, 16 bits/pixel
Mode 45 : 1024x768, 16 bits/pixel
Mode 49 : 1280x1024, 16 bits/pixel
Mode 4b : 1600x1200, 16 bits/pixel
Mode 4d : 1920x1440, 16 bits/pixel
Mode 50 : 640x480, 32 bits/pixel
Mode 52 : 800x600, 32 bits/pixel
Mode 54 : 1024x768, 32 bits/pixel
Mode 58 : 1280x1024, 32 bits/pixel
Mode 5a : 1600x1200, 32 bits/pixel
Mode 5c : 1920x1440, 32 bits/pixel
Mode 7c : 1024x600, 8 bits/pixel
Mode 7d : 1024x600, 16 bits/pixel
Mode 7e : 1024x600, 32 bits/pixel
--- End code ---

Since I don't use mode 38 (1280x1024 resolution), I used 915resolution to overwrite mode 38 with the native resolution of my laptop screen:
--- Code: ---# 915resolution 38 1280 800
--- End code ---

You just need to so something analagous to the above

straykat:
1024 x 600 24bit

straykat:
I can
915resolution 50 1024 600 24
then 915resolution -l shows the new mode50 as 1024 600 24 bits. 
then run ctrl pnl, Xvesa setup choose 4 for the 1024 600
but nothing seems to change,  i'm still at 800 600.
