Thank you. So, wait, fglrx doesn't use xorg.conf at all? Where does it store it's settings?

And I messed around with dozens of aticonfig options (if you read my original post I mentioned it)...

I also downloaded it and installed it from the .deb rather than apt-get. It's important to make sure the versions match, or to do the encryption on the oldest version to make sure it works...

There's no options for changing the resolution on the TV. It self selects it's mode based on the input.

But there has to be some setting somewhere... The resolution I put in the xorg.conf is...

I moved this over to the Multimedia & Video forum--seems to be a better fit there. Here's a link:

Hi there,

I'm running 8.04 (under Wubi) and I've got it almost working except the display isn't quite full screen on my big Sony TV. I have an ATI Radeon 9600 Pro driving a Sony KLV-32M1 TV. ...

Thanks Mark, but that didn't help. Looking at the xorg.conf I posted, all the changes I was making using aticonfig were being applied to /etc/X11/xorg.conf already.

I tried both options for...

I'm wondering the same thing, but as far as I can tell it's actually a Flash problem--flash uses Video for Linux 1, and most drivers are now Video for Linux V2. (or somemthing like that). I seem to...

I have an old HP/Compaq NC4010 and my power use was:


Fawn: Low. Ran for hours. Way better than XP.
Gibbon: Sucked power like an aluminum smeleter. Ran 1/2 as long on battery as Fawn. used...

Thank you, but it didn't help. :-( That's basically the same xorg.config editor that starts when you are configuring X the first time.

Here's some screenshots. The ones where it goes all the...

Thank you! Worked great -except- for one hitch on my Heron machine. Here's what happened (and the fix). The install worked great but when I tried to start VMWare Server it would pop up an icon in...

I got it. Turns out I had to turn on "Legacy USB" support in the BIOS to be able to boot from the USB CD drive.

And Heron is much cleaner after the clean install. PowerTOP shows many fewer...

Hi.

I just upgraded an old Ubuntu Gibbon laptop to Heron and it's acting werid. I've done a lot of poking around and playing around on this machine and I'd like to do a clean install rather than...
