I ultimately gave up on it and went back to 7.10, which is what I still have today. But when Hardy Heron came out, the best I could muster on screen resolution was 800圆00, and I wanted 1024x768 but was left with NO WAY whatsoever to set that as a screen resolution. I later switched to PCLinuxOS 2007 and was happy with it too until KDE decided to switch to version 4, which drove me to GNOME and Ubuntu.Īt the time I switched to Ubuntu, Ubuntu was, of course, on version 7.10. I bought it a couple of years ago when I was a MEPIS user, and it worked just fine without issue. I have an SiS 830 board in my computer, with onboard video. I too am disgusted by SiS's refusal to support Linux. The fact that I'm willing to put up with this should be testament to just how much I dread ever having to reinstall windows.Īnyone who finds a solution to this issue will have my eternal gratitude and possibly my first-born son.

Will soon be downgrading to Hardy again and (sadly) reverting back to Vesa 1024x768 which comes with funky horizontal bands across the screen. I've just upgraded to Intrepid and now I can't even get the bloody thing to go higher than 800圆00 which is absolutely heartbreaking. I know I will certainly never buy anything containing SiS hardware again if the situation doesn't change.

Their current attitude of witholding the drivers doesn't seem to be achieving anything except the alienation of Linux users. In hardy the best I managed to achieve was 1024x768 using the VESA driver and the result was mixed at best.ĭid anyone manage to get 1200x800 in Hardy like people in the above thread appeared to do with early releases?įrankly I just don't understand SiS's position.

Did anyone ever get anywhere with this problem?
