daenyth LQ Newbie Registered: Jul 2006 Posts: 3 Rep:	Sony Vaio PCG-R505TS screen resolution problem with debian I can't get my screen resolution to change. The only option I have is 640x480, even after trying dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86. I'm not sure what to try. I can post any config files or whatnot. Also, the scrollwheel on the touchpad isn't responding, so I think it's just an issue with the conf file for xf86. Any help is appreciated. EDIT: Fixed by copying the config from http://www.returntonature.com/linux/laptop/ Last edited by daenyth; 01-23-2007 at 03:35 PM.
