How to set the resolution?
Hi,
I am using Debian 4.0r1 in VirtualBox with gnome. I have three resolutions available in Desktop/Preference/SetResolution: 1024x768, 800x600 and 640x480. I am currently at 1024x768. I want to downgrade to 800x600. I select 800x600. 61 Hz is selt and nothing else is available. I press apply. X server restarts and I have to login again BUT, the resolution is still at 1024x768. I have removed display modes in 'Screen' section of xorg.conf but it seems to have no effect as 640x480 is still available:
Code:

When I login, there's a button 'Actions'. If I choose 'Configure the login manager' and enter my root password, there's 'Configure X Server...' under security tab. The server name is 'Standard name', the command is '/usr/bin/X -dpi 96 -audit 0' and Launch is 'Greeter'.
Any idea on how to fix it??
Thank's |
