Slackware 10 xorg.conf
Hi all. I have installed slackware 10 with 2.6.7 kernel, and I have a Laptop with wide screen, I have been trying for a long time to get 1280x800 and nothing, but now I downloaded slax the live cd version and I added 1280x800 on the xorg.conf and I got it. Now the question is can I copy and paste the slax xorg.conf into my xorg on slackware 10? or what do you suggest me to get 1280 on slack 10?
copy the xorg.conf ? i would say : just try it ...
sounds oke.
mount your hd r/w ( it's mounted ro by default ) and copy the xorg.conf to /<mountpoint>/etc/X11/xorg.conf .
( rename your original xorg.conf to -.old or so before doing that )
guess it will work.
