Hey folks,
I've got F16 running on an Advent 4211 (MSI Wind) quite happily.
Problems occur, however, when I connect my external monitor and try to use the netbook effectively as a nettop (i.e. configure external monitor only, close lid, continue with USB kb+mouse and external monitor).
Monitor is Dell 2407WFP, but I can't drive it any higher than 1024x768. THeory says I should get this going at 1920x1200 no?
/var/log/Xorg.0.log errors & warnings don't look to have anything to do with the Intel driver:
Code:
[root@netbook log]# cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -e EE -e WW
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.

But the last lines of /var/log/Xorg.0.log repeats the following 12 times:

Is there anything that can be done to get around this limitation? Or is there something obvious that I'm doing wrong? 1024x768 is a touch limiting with this monitor :-)
