Some experiences with grml 1.1 on a Dell Inspiron 530(nvidia chipset and graphics system) and a generic issue:
when running grml-x with a module option, but without windowmanager, it complains that the windowmanager with the name of the module doesn't exist. I'd expect it just says "you didn't specify a windowmanager", but instead it seems to try to take the last argument as windowmanager name.
Yeah, option parsing in shell isn't really fun. ;-)
I can recommend usage of zsh's completion mechanism so you get a valid command line. :)
As of the hardware support for inspiron: grml-x doesn't get an x system loaded - until I start it one time with the -fallback option.
_after_ this one start with fallback, I can start it again, without fallback - and then I get a better resolution and can work without the screen-scrolling that happens in fallback mode.
Does providing the -hsync and -vsync option help? Does using the vesa module (but without -fallback) change anything?
