I have followed your instructions on installing your driver. I have removed the SpecialTimings options from the xorg.conf file, however I have not had any success. The xorg log file indicates the lcd panel is detected as: x 0 y 0 <br />Could you provide any guidance as to how to proceed debugging this issue?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13339961704362835707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483144171809458914.post-67801711619173286942010-08-27T15:36:23.001+01:002010-08-27T15:36:23.001+01:00Cant get flash to work atall either says 'not ...Cant get flash to work atall either says 'not for this computer' anyone else have this problem?exitbreedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14725068576267486722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483144171809458914.post-44290760957607285752010-08-25T17:02:50.670+01:002010-08-25T17:02:50.670+01:00thank you it works nicely

Maybe vert refresh is too small?<br /><br />But I have another problem:<br />I installed Ubuntu 10.04 due to some unresolvable freezes and it seems ok now but <br />now I don't have readable console, definitely video mode is wrong. Screen is "running" or simply black, totally unusable. Ubuntu splash screen is the same. (in case of during loading and shutdown too). It was OK on 9.10 but it is wrong after new installation is finished, however Gnome was OK (only 800x600 was enabled as it was in 9.10)<br /><br />I have found that I should edit menu.pls in grub dir but I don't have such file and the examples were about normal vesa modes not 1360x768 so I don't know now what should I do.<br /><br />If I change video mode in startup manager settings program (I use Hungarian ver. So I hope this is the Eng. name of it )<br />something is changing but there is no video mode there which is working.<br /><br />Do you have any idea how should I force a readable video mode for consoles in this situation? (and for splash screens if possible)<br /><br />Thanks,<br />ZoltanUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15487319089490037682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483144171809458914.post-65140980796815894082010-05-20T20:43:11.306+01:002010-05-20T20:43:11.306+01:00hi drajwer....

Great work you made, however there is still 6 pixels missing (I have 1366x768 max). If I replace 1360 to 1366 and recompile the drivers it will still work? Or maybe add another mode.
