hp xt933 with s3 kl133 prosavage built in graphics only 800x600 help

Driver are built-in, whats supose to be the max resolution?
if you conect something on the secondary VGA out some cards change automatically the resolution to 800x600

with windows or mandriva i run 1600x1200

how do i change the display settings,or reinstall the driver

secondary vga?i have one monitor and it's plugged in normally,so i don't think that's it,could be wrong.

Hi :)

Try going up to the top taskbar and click on

System - Administration - Hardware Drivers

hopefully there might be something in there for you. I'm guessing you've already tried

System - Preferences - ScreenResolution near the end

If this hasn't helped please ttry searching around in launchpad for other questions about xorg.conf and screen-resolutions because this kind of question occurs a lot but i still don't know many answers myself

Good luck, happy hunting and regards from

i'm going to install 8.04 and see if that works,ive seen many people on here say that the drivers they needed was on it.thanks anyway.if that doesnt work,maybe i can find someone to make a wrapper out of a windows driver.oh by the way,it said in hardware devices that no proprietary drivers were in use.and in screen res there's no choices,only 800x600.

no help in 8.04,i guess if i can't figure this out i'll go to another distro.

It's worth enabling those proprietary drivers and also it'd be nice if you could copy and paste the Screen Section of your xorg.conf in here - it's in /etc/X11
