so...whats up with that? used to work yesterday? tried downgrading intel drivers , the kernel, and what not.

tested the screen on a different computer, it worked. its got arch but kernel 2.6.29

im stuck at 1024x768

EDIT. now i forced a modeline and its working....

is it possible that the display cable or the monitor are broken? tried it under vista and it failed too. same with xp. but i dont know if i need drivers for those.

vista thought it was a "no pnp default monitor."
