Hi,
I am a newbie to Linux administration,
I have successfully installed RedHat 9, everything went smoothly,
but I have some problems with changing my screen resolution
When trying to change it from System settings->Screen, it
says 800x600 which is right, I want at least to have 1024x768
so I choose that, restart my computer and what happens?
it is still 800x600, after trying to read docs from around RedHat and the web
I found out that the config file is in /etc/X11/"XF86 ... "
Everytime I try to change the settings, i look check the XF86 ... file,
but it seems the new settings is not set.
I have also tried SuSE Personal.8.2, but I cant get higher resolution
than 800x600
Can anyone help me out here, pleeeeeease ;-)
Info:
GFX card: Aopen Aeolus TI4200 8X (NVIDIA GForce 4 TI4200 8X)
Monitor: Samsung Syncmaster 957p
The monitor does not exist in RH9s list over monitors, so I am using
an unprobed monitor, I guess it is here the problem lies
but have no clue
what to do.
thanks in advance,
Thomas A.
