Hmmm... which display do you have? There are 800x600 DSTN (like mine),
800x600 TFT and 1024x768 TFT, if not more.

This is irrelevant. The version of your X server is relevant instead. Make
sure you use XFree86 3.3.1 (or maybe XSuse_Trident) with the Cyber9382/5
chips and the 9320 on external monitors, and 3.2 on the 9320 and the LCD.
