wide screen laptop problem

[Richard S. Crawford]

The elder gods, manifesting through Jon Hill, recently decreed:

> Section "Screen"
> Identifier "Screen0"
> Device     "Videocard0"
> Monitor    "Monitor0"
> DefaultDepth     24
> SubSection "Display"
> Viewport   0 0
> Depth     16
> Modes    "1280x800" 800x600" "640x480"
> EndSubSection
> SubSection "Display"
> Viewport   0 0
> Depth     24
> Modes    "1280x800"
> EndSubSection
> EndSection

This looks very similar to the setup I have for my own laptop, which also
has a widescreen resolution (1680 x 1050).  The 1680 x 1050 resolution
option still does not show up in my KDisplay dialogue, but I'm resigned to
that; I can adjust it in GNOME.

What I noticed was this line:

> Modes    "1280x800" 800x600" "640x480"

Is this a transcription error, or is there really a missing " before the
800x600?  That might be causing you some issues.
