Dell GX520, Fedora 4: 1920x1200 on Dell 2405FP fails

[Jacques Beigbeder]

Hello,

I don't find how to get 1920x1200 resolution on
the following hardware with Fedora Core 4 up-to-date:
    Dell GX 520
    Intel Chipset 945G
    screen Dell 24" : 2405FP, native resolution: 1920x1200

I fail to get 1920x1200 with Xorg...
I can only get 1600x1200.

Searching on the Web gives some hints but with no luck:
. 915resolution doesn't support 1920x1200;
. writing in xorg.conf:
    Modeline "1920x1200" 193.16 1920 2048 2256 2592 1200 1201 1204 1242
  doesn't succeed

Any idea?

This worked for me on different hardware (Dell Inspiron 6000 with
1920x1200 built-in display).

[root@g69 915resolution-0.4.5]# ./915resolution 5c 1920 1200
    Intel 800/900 Series VBIOS Hack : version 0.4.5

Chipset: 915GM
    BIOS: TYPE 1
    Mode Table Offset: $C0000 + $269
    Mode Table Entries: 36

Patch mode 5c to resolution 1920x1200 complete

So 915resolution works, but perhaps not for your hardware.

What does it say when you run it?
