Laptop screen resolution reduced to 800x600
Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 dual boot XP Pro & Hardy. Video card is Trident Microblade/XP which uses Intel 80815 chip. Upgraded to Intrepid (kernel 2.6.27-7 generic). Lost 1024x768 resolution a few upgrades back. Tried sudo displayconfig-gtk: command not found. Then gksudo gnome-display-

Have you tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg yet? However the success rate with that has fallen for me lately..I'vehad to resort to hand-crafting the xorg.conf file for various reasons. Do you or do you not have the trident driver/package available or installed ?

Hi Frank,
Yes, I did try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure (-phigh) xserver-xorg but these don't work at all. Trident video driver IS already on the system, that's why the resolution was 1024x768 with Hardy.
How do I hand-craft the xorg.conf file, such that the above driver is recognized when X starts?

Just copy and paste this into an editor save it in /etc/X11 as xorg.conf
If it doesn't work...look at the xorg.log in /var/logs for some clues as
to what xorg doesn't like. If you can't sort it out, send me the log.

Hi Frank,
That didn't work, because after restarting I saw 2 messages: "EE: Problem parsing the config file and error parsing the config file". I then restarted the kernel in recovery mode. Going back into thexorg.conf file, I noticed the old file /etc/X11/

Hello marcobra,
As I said in my first post, displayconfig-gtk is not available when I upgraded to Intrepid beta (but was available in Hardy). Following your advice, i.e. "...sudo displayconfig-gtk" just to see what happen, this is what I got:
"Package displayconfig-gtk is not available, but is referred to by another package.
E: Package displayconfig-gtk has no installation candidate"
I also checked with Synaptic Package Manager but failed to find "displayconfig-
Sigh! Thanks anyhow.

I'll have to get back to you tomorrow but this xorg.conf file is
useless to you because it's using VESA, and not your trident_drv driver.
It loads the driver but then can't seem to find any modes it likes.
More tomorrow

I then restarted the kernel in recovery mode.
Going back into thexorg.conf file, I noticed the old file

Hello - I think I had a similar issue with a Toshiba Tecra M1 with the "cyberbladeXP4" chipset. I would boot up in Intrepid and only get 800x600, but the screen was obviously capable of 1024x768.
After a bunch of research, I realized that the only issue was the kernel/driver was using default sync rates, which were too low for a valid 1024x768. Here were the relevant lines from the log:
(II) VESA(0): Configured Monitor: Using default hsync range of 31.50-37.90 kHz
(II) VESA(0): Configured Monitor: Using default vrefresh range of 50.00-70.00 Hz
-and-
(II) VESA(0): Not using built-in mode "1024x768" (hsync out of range)
After a bunch of trial and error, the change that got it working was simple: I added the following 2 lines to the "Monitor" section of the default xorg.conf, and restarted X (CTRL+ALT+
HorizSync 28-50
VertRefresh 43-75
I hope this is helpful for someone! (or at least stays here long enough for the next time I install Ubuntu on this laptop!)

Also a valid solution on an HP Pavilion XH555 with Trident Microsystems Cyberblade/XP (rev 63).
Thanks Nate Chrysler.

Add a Toshiba Satellite A20-S207 with a Trident CyberBlade XP2 graphics processor to the "fixed my problem" list. Thanks, Nate.
