Hello, 

I try yo use svgalib-1.4.1 (from stock RedHat 6.2) on a Dell Latitude
CPxJ laptop. The video card is an 8MB ATI Rage Mobility (ATI 3D Rage Pro
chipset). The problem is: I can not get resolutions higher than 320x200.
I can get this resolution for many depths to work (up to 16M) with this
card but anything at higher resolution than that refuses to work unless
640x480 with low depths (4 colors). I always get a black screen with my
monitor saying "out of range" but when I press "q", the "vgatest"
program quit and the text mode comes back. I have tried to add my
XF86Config modelines for higher resolutions (800x600, 1024x768,
1152x864) without success. 


Any ideas ? If you need more informations, feel free to contact me. 


Thanks for your help, 


Claude.
