[ubuntu-x] packages needing updates and other stuff

[shirish]

Hi bryce,
        First of all its been a great ride for people like me who are
not power users to be able to use the tool via Preferences > Screen
Resolution.
I do have few questions however ?

1. Why are there 65 packages which need to be updated in packaging as
shown in http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Xorg/status_current.html?

2. Using Screen Resolution while I'm able to change the resolution I'm
not able to change the refresh-rate, why is that ?

This is the stuff I have

shirish at Mugglewille:~$ lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE/PE
DRAM Controller/Host-Hub Interface (rev 03)
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation
82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 03)

shirish at Mugglewille:~$ aptitude show xserver-xorg-video-intel |grep Version
Version: 2:2.2.1-1ubuntu6

Lastly, it would be nice if you would blog more often at
