CentOS 3: grep -i driver /etc/X11/XF86Config CentOS 4: grep -i driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf If it says "vesa", then you're kernel framebuffer (vga=mode) is defining your resolution, not X. If so, edit the file and replace "vesa" with "i810" and restart X (Ctrl-Alt-Backspace from the X console if running). -- Bryan J.
