It not a question of what I tolerate but what Roxio will do ?
The slowest it will burn is 4x , so I'll see if the thinkpad can
read that.

Let you know what happens.

OK that fixed it.
However I have a video problem.
Resolution gets screwed up.
DSL tries 1024x768 by default ( i know my laptop won't do that ).

I'm suppose to be able to use 800x600x16 max.
However I can't get that res to display right.
Appears as a green mesh and not able to read anything.

I have specified this res in the prompt and the xsetup.
Xsetup can be displayed properly but the desktop doesn't.

Make sense ?
Can get the res for setup right but not desktop.

Try booting with fb800x600

That should keep the text from rolling off the bottom of the screen..

Then when you get to xsetup options, pick xfbdev and 800x600

I can't set res with xfbdev
I can set the mouse and some other setting ( can't remember I think it was usb )and then it starts the desktop, it skips the resolution setup.

I can set all three with xvesa but that doesn't work and is what I am having problems with.

Any ideas what's wrong with xfbdev ?

My mistake..
Once you set the fb800x600 at boottime,
all you get is 800x600 when you select Xfbdev..

You are correct when you said all you get is the mouse choices.

If you need a larger resolution, try fb1024x768
But realize you'll ONLY get 1024x768
oops ...800x600 for you only... according to your post.
