Ati drivers and fedora core 3


Hi all

sorry to be a pain but this is really driving me mad

Before i installed the ATI drivers my screen resolution was set to 1920 x 1440 after installing the driver i cannot set a resolution above 1600x1200

i have run the config utility but i am stuck with that resolution... I know my hardware will do 1920 x 1440 but cant find how to set it

can anyone help me out with this please?

Thanks

Dan

Try adding a subsection to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf or /etc/X11/XF86Config whichever one you have.
Here's one from my xorg.conf. as an example. You can have as many as you want as long as they're valid.


Code:
Subsection "Display"
        Depth 24
        Virtual 1024 768
    EndSubsection
EndSection
