I have an ACER Travelmate 230XC. Knoppix boots, but reports that an invalid video mode number has been passed. Using the vga=normal cheatcode fixes that problem, however when X starts, it is low res 640x480, and the fonts are very large and hard to read (fuzzy).

Using the cheatcode screen=1024x768 didn't seem to do much.

I did manage to run xf86config from run level 2, and restart X in a higher resolution (1024 I think), so I know it can support it. The fonts were still fuzzy though.

How can I get knoppix to start up in a reasonable screen setup/mode? Any suggestions welcome about the fonts too.
