Screen Reverting After xvidtune
I am running Fedora C3 (gnome) with a KVM switch. I cannot adjust the screen position via the controls on the monitor because it will change the other pc's on the KVM also.
I did some research and found xvidtune. I found this to be a really great utility, until I rebooted. The screen keeps reverting to the original position. So... Every time I reboot, I have to open xvidtune and re-adjust. The procedure that I am doing: open xvidtune--> adjust screen--> click "apply"--> click "quit". Any ideas/solutions would be greatly appreciated. This is the only screen utility that I have found which adjusts is small units; the others move the screen, at like, 1 inch icrements which sucks. Thanks |
Run xvidtune from a terminal and click 'show'. A series of numbers will be printed like (example from my machine):
"1280x1024" 167.25 1280 1344 1504 1728 1024 1025 1028 1072 It's a modeline. To have it after a reboot you need to add it to /etc/X11/XF86Config (or the configuration file of X.org, depending to what you have). Place for the addition is in the "Monitor" section. In a line before EndSection type Modeline and paste the line you got from xvidtune. The section after modifications may look this way: Code:
Section "Monitor" |
Perfect!!
