I've setup my XFree86Config file (using xf86config) to run at my monitor's recommended resolution of 1280x1024 and the following lines are present in the Screen section:
Code:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen 1"
Device "* Generic VESA compatible"
Monitor "SM171s"
DefaultDepth 24
Subsection "Display"
Depth 8
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
ViewPort 0 0
EndSubsection
Subsection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
ViewPort 0 0
EndSubsection
Subsection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
ViewPort 0 0
EndSubsection
EndSection
However, I don't think X is running in this resolution, because I'm getting the slight anti-aliasing/blurring effect that I used to have on Windows before I upped the resolution (it's an LCD/TFT monitor and doesn't seem to like being run at anything other than the recommended resolution and to be honest I'd like to use the maximum anyway).
Is there a tool that will tell me exactly what resolution X is running at, in case it's skipping the first resolution and using the next one?
