Ok i decided to give linux a try for the first time and I have it installed on my machine after allot of hassle with not having a optical drive and limited BIOS boot options but its on now.
I'm currently stuck with 800x600 res in the middle of the monitor pannel. Native is 1024x768.
Shimmy down of laptop:
Toshiba Portege R100
12.1" Screen 1024x768
40GB PCMIA type 1.8" HD
512MB RAM
Trident XPm32 LP Graphics with 32MB <--- Problem starter
Now iv tried
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
And as guides suggest i should be given a choice of resolutions but I dont it goes through asking about keyboard etc.
The xorg.conf file seems very empty indeed, I tried adding modes myself but it errored on next boot.
I know there are built in configs for ATI, NV etc, and Trident but not my series of card or what have you, and I think this is where the problem lies and makes things complicated.
Any help would be greatly appriciated.
Many thanks in advance.
