My last two laptops have both been 800x600, and I know of some earlier monitors and video cards that had such a resolution for the max. > Thanks for any info on this, the Toshiba docs that I have are very > confusioing, they even imply that it will do 1280x1024, at least in > interlaced. This does not seem correct either. I've wondered about this myself, but I've never pursued the matter. I wonder if it's either a generic manual that was written to cover all models, or if driving the lcd&chip at that level is only possible with their proprietary drivers. In Windows I wasn't able to set my own display (Satellite 4010CDS) to that level, so I'm betting it's a generic manual. What experiences do others have on this? I'm sure I'm wrong in at least *part* of this, but such is my experience on the matter to the present. -Eric To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
