This list is about the intel driver. As 1024x600 is not a resolution defined by VESA, it won't be used by the VESA driver. If you switch to the intel driver, it should work (and also give reasonable and nice features like video and 3D accelleration). In the logfile, the intel driver is loaded but not used. I don't know why. Maybe because it is loaded too late. You might try to remove the VESA driver and the fbdev driver. Regards, Tino
