hi everybody.
Maybe someone could help me. My hp nx6110 laptop has a
i915gm video chipset. 

Running ubuntu 5.10 I cannot get higher resolution
than 1024*768.
Ive installed the 915resolution hack patch but did not
succeed in make it run. It indicates the VBIOS
resolutions list, but I cannot get more from this
patch. I'm stuck.
Someone could detail me the procedure to follow ?

Ive also downloaded i915graphics tar drivers from
intel but Im unable to install it (Im basically
newbee, maybe a little step beyond newbee but not more
:-) ).

Which of both methods should be used ?
Thanks for your help.

Sébastien.
(loc : France :-) )
