I am only seeing 1024x768 under the Screen section in the display subsections, might be why;)

I cant remember right off hand if you need it under the monitor as well, lemme check mine...

Nope just need the sync ranges under the monitors, but you definitly need to expand your modelines in the Screen section, actually I just noticed another difference, yours is set with virtual, however in my xorg.conf it is...

SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" blah blah blah
End SubSection

Things to look into at any rate;)

I believe all mods can be done in pclinuxos control center. You can mod xorg.conf directly but if you chose right monitor and video control center will work.

I never got e17 to work. :rolleyes:
If you go [HERE] (http://enlightenment.freedesktop.org/) and d/l and compile: eet, evas, ecore, embryo, edje,and enlightenment in order... it worked for me. At first i did the 0.9.9.025 versions and it didnt work but it did work with the 0.9.9.023 versions.
