Sir kindly give me hint how can i increase the resolution of BLFS screen.....

Um.... in GNOME check the system settings application for the Display applet, then look for Screen Resolution.

I haven't used GNOME in ages so I wouldn't know.

If you made a systemwide xorg.conf as my hint stickied on the forum pointed out, it should automatically have your resolution set at the maximum allowable.
