I had to go and find the exact specs for the Daewoo 707B monitor then manually enter them into the xorg.config file. I also needed to add the actual modes in the screen section. Now I'm running at 1280x1024 and have lots of desktop room to fill. :-) My config file looks like this - # Xorg configuration created by system-config-display Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "single head configuration" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" EndSection Section "InputDevice" # keyboard added by rhpxl Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "us" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" ModelName "Daewoo 707B" HorizSync 30.0 - 69.0 VertRefresh 50.0 - 120.0 Option "dpms" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "nv" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection EndSection -- "Huh?!?" - Me, two seconds after being told not to lean on that big red button and one second before the Haylon system activated. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
