Hi,

I´m running suse 10 on my laptop hp dv5000 (15.4 widescreen), but i have some problems with the monitor resolution.

I try change the resolution in sax2, but if i select a diferent resolution like 1280x768 and after test always appear 800x600 on the test screen...

/boot/grub/menu.lst

vga=0x314

xorg.conf

Try reading up on "Modeline" ...

Or, see this web site:

http://mbreen.com/installfc3.html#display

The Modes/Monitor/Screen section illustrated there should work for you.
