NM2070 on Dell Latitude Xp

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hello. I'm running Red Hat 6.1 (Cartman) on a Dell Latitude Xp Laptop and have encountered a problem. This model of Dell Latitude uses the NeoMagic Chip, NM2070, wich works fine with X, but it splits the screen and uses only 3/4 of it, starting from the upper left corner, the keyboard has a font toggle button wich allows me to use the whole screen but with grainy fonts and images. Now, I've read that this is a common problem with this chip but cant find a suitable answer in the internet. My question is, how can I make use of the whole screen (I already tried making vga=770 at starup with LILO, but this only affected the initial screen not X).
 
Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your responses.
