hi!

I need support in configuration of Linux platform (Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, Kernel 2.6) on mainboard Intel D945GCLF2 + 8" Monitor.

I mainly struggle with configuration of xorg.conf in order to have the recommended resolution 800x480 available.

I'm confident that installation of graphic chip driver is correct:
lspci | grep VGA
-> 00:02.2 Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
glxinfo | grep rendering
-> direct rendering: Yes

My assumption is that the required driver for the monitor is not installed.

Could someone assist here by means of
a) providing the driver or a link
b) providing instructions for installation of the driver?

This is highly appreciated.

THX

I do not think that you will manage to display 800x480 on this display.

You should ask your supplier or Navilock about this. To get 800x480 to work you need two things :
- a PC capable of displaying custom resolutions
- a TFT which can detect the resolution

So for both issues, you need to get specific informations which we can not give you (because we do not offer Navilock displays).
