Resolution problem with i810

[Rafael Mejías]

Hi. Thanks for the answer. I did all the changes in xorg.conf and
restarted gdm with the following results:

>         HorizSync       28-49
> to
>         HorizSync       28-75

nothing weird happened, Same resolution (800x600)

>         Driver "i810"

gdm did not start. The log said I don't have the "intel" driver
installed. Fixed it with the "i810" driver again and restarted gdm.
Back to the old 800x600...

and still nothing...

I just downloaded the latest available bios from www.gateway.com and
installed it. And still nothing...

Here it goes: I copied these sections to my xorg.conf and restarted
gdm. And guess what!  800x600 again...

I believe I have to compile stuff :-( but have no idea where to start.
I would not like to install a lot of packages that won't work in the
end...

Please help... :'''(
