Thanks for the suggestion Dov, but I'm afraid it did not work. I had the same error messages trying to install it.

But after searching again for Via drivers for linux I found this (see link below) which works let's say 99.9%...

http://linux.via.com.tw/support/downloadFiles.action

After installing the driver above and rebooting my machine, it started with the screen resolution of 1024x768, just what I wanted!!

Great, except for one thing: the login screen is now gigantic (about 4 times the size of the screen) and I can't see the field to type the username and pwd. But it works when I 'blindly' enter my login.

So, I'm now searching for a solution to this gigantic login screen... Anyone, any ideas please?
