Display Resolution and Battery Meter

[Digital Van]

I happily got iPC 10.5.6 to get up and running on my Dell Inspiron 6000, and have run into two issues:

 

Issue 1: The display is a 1920x1200 running on an ATI Mobility X300, which I have yet to find any drivers for, and seem to have only found a handful of others looking for the same, and I was wondering if there was a way I could change the resolution to 1920x1200, even without any specific drivers. I don't particularly need QI or QE or whichever it is, because other than playing, transcoding, and subbing video I have little use for hardware acceleration, and even so I don't need much for that. I installed using the generic Natit driver.

 

Issue 2: Though I have installed iPC several times with different power and acpi drivers, none of them have given me any sort of indication that there is a battery present. It's an Inspiron 6000 with one of the lap-roasting Japanese batteries, and I don't know much about laptop power beyond that. Its not as important as the video since I'm always using AC power, but any suggestions?

 

Dell Inspiron 6000, Pentium M 2.0GHz, 2GB 533MHZ RAM, ATI Mobility Radeon X300, Intel ProSet 2200

iPC OSx86 10.5.6 Universal (final / PPF5): Voodoo 9.5.0, Natit, Intel ICHx, AppleBCM440X, Proset 2200, AC97, AppleACPIPower (as of this post, also tried voodoo power and chu nan's batterymeter)

 

This newbie appreciates your help,
