Posting from a 600MHz Celeron Compaq laptop that I bastardized with quintupled RAM and Xubuntu.

No further updates required.

Attempted. Failed.

In checking the logs, it's apparently too much for the LCD display on this Shitpaq laptop and therefore cannot be used as a resolution (outside LCD display size or something of the sort).

LCDs have a set max-size; if it isn't blurry (like a badly-resized image), that's usually as high as it goes.

My old 250MHz laptop went up to 800x600, so I wouldn't doubt if that was the max.

Well, reconfigured as much as I could to work with as much as I could.

I think I'm spent for the night and that comp...so I'll hand it in tomorrow.

Oh, I read that as "quadrupled". Whoops.

It went from 64 to 320.

Just dropped a 256MB stick in there, maxing the mobo. It has a 64MB NON-REMOVABLE RAM chip in the mobo. That chip goes bad, that mobo's bad.
