I have an OQO mod 2 it has the VIA CX700M2 UniChrome PRO II vidoe 'chip'
(considering how small this unit is, I don't know if physically this is
a separate chip or part of something larger, but I doubt that matters).
The install worked (I used remote vnc as I have had encountered video
problems with older distros that had to use the vesa driver), and it
came up with 800x600 resolution. With system-config-display --reconfig I
was able to increase this to 1024x768 (all that I need), with one
important caviat:
neither 600x480, 800x600, or 1024x768 works on the builtin display on
the OQO, only on the external VGA monitor. On the builtin display all I
get are out-of-sync lines. Even if I do a startx (after booting with
inittab at 3 to come up in text mode) with no external monitor, I still
get those out-of-sync lines.
the /etc/X11/xorg.conf has the same vert and horz ranges as the OQOs
that have Centos 5.2 using the vesa driver (that will only allow the
600x480 mode no matter what I try).
So any idea on how to get the builtin monitor to sync in? I really want
the option of using it..
