I am trying wmii on my main computer which has a screen of 1440X900. The problem is that I am missing the lower portion of the screen. I have to bring the mouse in the lower portion of the screen to see the menu per exemple. I am using xf86-video-i810. All is okay with kde. Any suggestions ?
Maybe I should also add that the only way I could get that display to work correctly is by using "915resolution 5c 1440 900".

If kde can do it, xrandr probably can too!
Otherwise try using xf86-video-intel, which is newer and does not need 915resolution to get widescreen modes.

Are you saying xrandr is to be installed? If so, why is it not listed as a dependency...:/
Iin any case, I tried xf86-video-intel. Now, with wmii, it looks like the graphics are vertically slightly compressed. Then going back to kde, the display flickers like crazy from left to right...
EDIT_1 : Plus, there seems to be some problems with kernel and intel video driver although I don't have kernel .25 (http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=49159)
