Using Lucid Lynx on a Dell Inspiron 2600 with Intel 82830m video. XOrg with intel graphics driver.
The xserver doesn't guess the correct screen settings either for the live cd or post install.

After installing with the alternative CD (possible although the rendering of text mode is very poor with lots of fuzzy lines) I made an xorg.conf file using the suggestion here:

This seems to work with the native resolution of the display.
