For some reasons , i only have 3 selections for my screen resolution. I want to change to 1152 x 864 or smaller, how can I do that?

many thanks

edit your xorg.conf , which is in /etc/X11/ , and scroll down to the screen section and look for something like this...

Code:

Section "Screen"
    Identifier  "Screen 1"
    Device      "ATI(RadeonGeneric)"
    Monitor    "GatewayVX700"
    DefaultDepth 24

    Subsection "Display"
        Depth      8
        Modes      "1024x768"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection
    Subsection "Display"
        Depth      16
        Modes      "1024x768"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection
    Subsection "Display"
        Depth      24
        Modes      "1024x768"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection
EndSection

simply add the desired resolution to each of the displays, save , and restart x, and then you should be able to select your desired resolution .
