I have a 3D Labs Permedia 2-based AGP graphics card with 8Mb of RAM (It's a
Microstar 4413, to be exact). I have tried fiddling with all the refresh
combos and can't get it to display above 800x600 mode (works fine at that
res). I have lied about my monitor (which is up to just about anything
anyway). In Windoze98 I can get this card up to 32-bit colour 1280x1024 - so
800x600 is a little disappointing in XFree. I am using the latest version of
XFree.

Can anyone help?

Cheers
