Hello:
I recently baught Sony VAIO FS570 notebook, its a 15.4" screen. I cannot
for the life of me Xorg to go above 1024x768. It is running the vesa
driver, native card is an Intel 915GM, the i810 does not properly
recognize the device. I have googled this and have come with with no
successful answer. Any assistance in getting the resolution to go higher
would be GREATLY appreciated, 1024x768 is annoying. Windows runs it at
1280x800.

I have attached verbose dmesg, /var/log/Xorg.log and xorg.conf. I have
done almost every possible xorg.conf that documents a working 16:10
resolution

Thanks in advance!!
