Hello,
I am trying to use Knoppix on a Dell Optiplex GX260 using the video hardware displayed below. It is a flat screen monitor, DEL Ultrasharp. However when I boot up, I can only use the 640x480 mode. I have tried using ctrl-alt-+ to try to change video modes but it has no effect.
Video is IntelCorp | 82845G/GL [Brookdale-G] Chipset Integrated Graphics Device; using XFfree86(i810) Server
Monitor is DELe000, H:30-80kHz, V:56-85Hz
Using Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
I have also tried it with another monitor, the IBM 17' P70, which is a normal CRT monitor, and the same effect occurs. Under Windows 2000 this monitor supports 1280x1024.
Can someone please assist me with resolving this.
Some outputs are given below.
