Slack 10 screen resolution
 
Installed Slack 10 from magazine discs. Screen resolution is only 800 x 600 and cannot be changed from Control Center. File /etc/X11/xorg.conf shows...

# DefaultDepth 8
# DefaultDepth 16
DefaultDepth 24
# DefaultDepth 32

# "1024x768" is also a conservative usable default resolution. If you
# have a better monitor, feel free to try resolutions such as
# "1152x864", "1280x1024", "1600x1200", and "1800x1400" (or whatever your
# card/monitor can produce)

Subsection "Display"
Depth 8
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubsection
Subsection "Display"

What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

In my xorg.conf there are lines "ViewPort 0 0" under each Modes lines ,like :

Subsection "Display"
Depth 8
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
ViewPort 0 0
EndSubsection
Subsection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
ViewPort 0 0
...

I don't know if they are mandatory though...
