Bug Description

Hi. I installed the beta of 7.04 then final release in hopes that it would it would have fixed it. I use a laptop to test a variety of distributions. In 7.04, I noticed that the only available resolution is 1400x1050. The ALPS trackpad does not work with scrolling down like the wheel in 6.10. The volume and mute buttons do not work. IPW2200 works excellent FOR WIFI. I also tested an Orinoco Gold in monitor mode to no avail. I returned to 6.10.

System:

Dell 600m
2G RAM
IPw2200 NIC
ATI Radeon FireGL 9000

Thank you for your help in this awesome distro. Keep it up.

To clarify, other resolutions in 7.04 is not available aside from 1400x1050. It was available in the previous versions. It looks nice but I usually set my screen to 1280x1024. Am I missing something?

Hardware:

Dell 600m laptop
ATI Radeon FireGL 9000
2G RAM

Thank you,

Ymmij, it's difficult to say what's wrong without seeing your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Is there any chance you could post these? If not, we'll have to close this as unfixable.

I apologize for leaving this open. Please feel free to close it. My
laptop decided to choke. I will have it repaired then I will post a more
thorough description of the problem. Thank you.
