Thx
]]>Congratulations Snowman, i may use a little of ur Xorg, and keep mine up-to-date in case someone in the future needs it
EDIT: just a question if u may...
Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "LCD" Screen 1 "Screen1" Screen 0 "Screen0" InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Synaptics Touchpad" InputDevice "USB Mouse" "CorePointer" EndSection
is the layout that is giving u LCD 1280x768 and CRT 1280x1024 in Clone mode ??
No. What I meant in my previous post is that I couldn't set up the LCD 1280x768 and CRT 1280x1024 in "clone" mode. I haven't tried the Clone option though. Maybe it is needed to accomplish that. That server layout let me use the external monitor only (a flat screen LCD monitor in my case).

]]>I used _Gandalf_ idea of using different layouts as I couldn't get 1280x768 on my laptop and 1280x1024 on my external monitor at the same time (like some sort of Clone option). So now I have the chocie between laptop only, external monitor only or both with xinerama. The 1280x768 resolution is a great improvement on the old 1024x768 resolution I had because of the higher resolution (of course) and crisper fonts. Fonts looks better on my external monitor too.
I've also changed the HorizSync and VertRefresh because of a warning in the logs involving DDC.
]]>startx
will load normal Non-xinerama mode, LCD only with 1280 x 768 @ 75 Hz
startx -- -layout Xinerama
will give u LCD with 1280 x 768 @ 75 Hz and 1280 x 1024 @ 60 Hz (i couldn't raise it to 85Hz sorry )
my monitor (CRT) is a 17" one so you may need to use 1024x768 instead of 1280 x 1024 if you use a smaller one..
and here's my complete [URL=http://wael.nasreddine.com/files/config/etc/X11/xorg.conf]xorg.conf[/URL] for HP dv1000 series, don't forget to change the keyboard layout, i have a french one
]]>anyway my xorg.conf if it interrests someone, i took some of ur options snowman
]]>Lucky u snowman, I wonder how the right-rear one works, I send the pc for repairing 3 times, they changed the chip -> http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y171/r … fc359a.jpg 3 times, and it always stoped working after a week or 2, and I just re-assembled my PC after a failure attemp to fix it myself coz am out of warrenty now...
-> USB issue
I use it to plug in my mouse. It works fine. I have a higher model number so maybe my laptop is more recent and that problem was fixed. Or I am just lucky.
P.S: if u have a dv1000 running Arch can u share your xorg.conf plz, am trying to have the best one by collecting many dv1000 xorg.conf
Sure. It's pretty standard right now. I'll eventually add xinerama support. 8)
EDIT:I updated the xorg.conf as I now have xinerama support.

P.S: if u have a dv1000 running Arch can u share your xorg.conf plz, am trying to have the best one by collecting many dv1000 xorg.conf
]]>also check http://www.dv1000forums.com for general info on dv1000 series, before u buy it know that this series has a problem with one USB port, i haven't seen dv1000 with 3 working ports
My 3 USB ports works.
]]>Also, since the 2.6.15.x kernel series I'm experiencing hard freezes especially when watching videos or listening to music. Booting with acpi=off solve that problem (although I think it froze once with acpi=off, not sure though) I assume that it's a kernel problem and that it will be solve eventually (in 2.6.16?).
Let me know if you want particular info.
