SubjectRe: Vertical only virtual desktop with XF68_FBDev
In lists.linux.kernel you write:

>Not sure how/if this is relevant to this list but here goes:

>I have the frame buffer working (has been for a couple months now). When I
>run the XF68_FBDev X server I get a virtual desktop that's vertical only.
>I know nothing of graphics and have no idea how/if this can be fixed.

>Is there a way to get the virtual desktop to behave the same as it would
>for a standard XF86Config with virtual desktop enabled?

You'll need a modeline which matches your current video mode (try fbset -x).
Then configure X11 like this:

Section "Screen"
Driver "FBDev"
Device "matrox"
Monitor "gateway"
SubSection "Display"
Modes "1024x768"
Virtual 1024 768
EndSubSection
EndSection
