change screen resolution
this might sound like a stupid question, but how do i change my screen resolution?
i tried doing it graphically in KDE, but it wouldn't let me go beyond 800x600 ozzy |
X might be running a weird config. Try #xorgcfg -textmode as root and reconfigure your video hardware.

i got bashed
bash: xorgcfg: command not found (yes, i was textmode & root) |
I might be wrong, but I think the KDE Control Center displays only those resolutions indicated within the xorg.conf file. My /etc/X11/xorg.conf looks like this:
Subsection "Display" Depth 8 Modes "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubsection Subsection "Display" Depth 15 Modes "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubsection Subsection "Display" Depth 16 Modes "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubsection Subsection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubsection Subsection "Display" Depth 32 Modes "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubsection The KDE Control Center shows all of my screen resolutions just fine, but IIRC, not until I manually added the above info into my xorg.conf. As much as I enjoy Slack, I think video support is one area that needs improvement. Just my opinion. I hope this helps. |
