Hello, i have an Intel 865G integrated graphics, and im struggling to get a 1440x900 resolution (on Windows it works without problem)
I think that everything comes into the "Modeline" parameter i changed it a lot of times with different results, most of the time i cant get the 1440x900 option on the screen resolution panel of gnome, but when im able to choose it the screen just goes blank
here is the revelant part of my xorg.conf, like this i cant choose 1440x900 on gnome but at least i get 1024x768, if i remove the "@60" the graphics doesnt even start
Code:

i also installed 915resolution and overwrited the 640x480 with my custom res, here is the output:

i hope that someone can give me a hand with this, my current 1024x768 looks awful and i just cant work on windows (and don't want to)
