Hi,
I'm trying to get knoppix to work with my widescreen laptop (1440x900). I've successfully done this with Mandrake by creating a custom modeline and 'screen' sebsection in XF86Config-4. However in Knoppix when I start it with the command 'linux26 screen=1440x900 2', add my custom modeline at the command line & run 'startx' the XFree log shows an error message to the effect of 'not using 1440x900 because there is no modeline.' Is there something else I need to do in order to get knoppix to pick up my custom modeline in the config file?
Thanks,
Rich
