Changing resolution...

jmeile · 07-01-2002, 07:51 AM

Hi,
I've searched in the forum, but I've found that you have to edit the XF86Config (in Susse) or XFConfig-4 (in Redhat). I'm working with a 3D visualization program and need to change it to a fixed resoltion whenever the user executes some predefined examples. My idea is to do this from a shell script without asking the user anything. Is there any command that does it?

Thanks in advanced,
Josef.

sounds like you've got it sussed, you just have to learn how to script now

Actually, I've an executable file in a system called IRIX that does it. Somebody else asked me if it's possible to do it in Linux (Susse and Redhat). Unfortunatelly, I don't have the source code of this file. So, I can't figure out how it works.

Has somebody ever made something like this?
