sudheerd LQ Newbie Registered: Jun 2001 Posts: 11 Rep:	FC3 + XWindows -setting default resolution Hi, I'm using Fedora 3 with IceWM window manager. The screen section of my xorg.conf file is given below. My problem is I want to start XWindows in 800x600 as the 'default' resolution. Some applications doesn't fit in the screen in 800x600, in that case I want to switch to 1024x768 resolution using CTRL ,ALT,+ key combination. Is this possible?. Under the current setting it always starts at 1024x768 resolution. Thanks, Sudheer Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 16 Modes "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection EndSection
