X server question

Hi

I am new to Slitaz and have a question. I have an old IBM ThinkPad T21 which is now running Slitaz. It seems pleasingly fast compared with what I had on it before, but unfortunately the display looks awful :-( This is an X issue - it will only accept 800x600 resolution (8 bit). I know for a fact that the display should support 1024x768 at 16 or possibly 24 bit as it works fine with liveCDs from other distros. I have tried the "screen=1024x768x16" (and 24) boot option but this is ignored :-(

I would really like to use Slitaz, but this is a show stopper as far as I'm concerned. Please please can someone help?

Thanks

- Chris
