Hi,<br>
<br>
I have upgraded my kernel to <a href="http://2.6.15.20" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">2.6.15.20</a> and the sound problem is solved. <br>
<br>
But the video problem is partially solved. I ran dpkg-reconfigure
xserver-xorg, it went through a series of dialogues, it selected by
default the 1280x800 mode, but when I rebooted the machine, it was
still showing the 1024x768 mode. I looked into the xorg file, 1280x800
is in the list of supported modes, but when I open the
system->preferences->screenResolution, it shows only 1024x768 as
the highest one.<br>
<br>
Can somebody tell me what am I missing?<br>
<br>
Here is my xorg.conf file:<br>
