Display resolution-help needed
 

I tried to change me screen res to 1152x864 which is what I have XP set to on the same pc, however now when I boot Mandriva the screen res is huge and totally unusable. I can access hardly anything from KDE because most of it is off the screen. Is there any way I can change it back to 1024x768 using a command line?
Thanks in advance

From the command line, as root, enter

XFdrake

or

XFdrake --config

This will give you a tool to change your screen resolution.

You can also use KDE which is in Configuration->KDE ->Look and Feel

On my system, the Corporate desktop, I have a blue box in the KDE tray at the bottom right of my screen which allows me to click that icon, and change the screen resolution.

I typed XFdrake into a root console and it just said command not found.
Is there any way of adjusting the resolution straight from the command line as like I said i cannot use KDE due to it being off the screen.

Hi there, you can use hotkeys to cycle through all the available screen modes :-

crtl-alt-(keypad +) or ctrl-alt-(keypad -)

Hope that helps :)

Thats sorted it. Phew!
Thanks a lot!:D

Great :)
