CRT 19' monitor, I get 1280x960 85hz which is usable though picture not as good as nvidia.
But how to make it persist?It reverts to 1600xsomething, unusable on that monitor

__{{emoticon}}__ thanx

Will install nvidia.. but that's not so easy. Nvidia package fails and there are no debs for this kernel.
Nvidia install was hell on Wheezy RC1 with stock kernel..

find another kernel, acrotix or maybe compile a kernel ..

Have you used smxi/sgfxi to install nvidia drivers?
