My laptop relies on intel 815 video chip. This is very problematic video card. None of my games under wine runs after the upgrade to 11.10. So I installed synaptic and removed the package that provided drivers for the video card(intel 8xx xorg). Unfortunately, the only screen resolution available for me after doing this, is 1024x768. I would love to have the ability to resize to 800x600(which is supported when the driver is installed. Is there something I can try to do that. Anyone willing to help?

I think you are going to be better off configuring the intel driver then removing it. – bodhi.zazen Mar 31 at 12:44
I installed the unstable drivers from xorg-edgers, and this fixed it. – deckoff Apr 2 at 13:44
