dalinux_n00bie Linux Newbie Join Date: Nov 2006 Posts: 225	[SOLVED] Intel video drivers so my monitor goes to 1280X1024, but Arch is only showing 1024x784 (or whatever the step down of that res is). I have a integrated Intel G965 video card. I installed the xf86-video-intel module, but it runs the vesa drivers.

I mean it looks like it on my xorg.conf. __________________ "Do or do not...there is no try" -Yoda History is a set of lies agreed upon by the winners. Linux is user friendly, not idiot friendly.
