I am getting no traction on xorg mail list - perhaps I cannot ask in a way that makes them answer but the idea is... Fedora 11 Beta (xrandr 1.3 - yeah!) If I manually execute the command... xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1024x600 --panning 1280x1024 I sort of get what I want...well, the background is tiled but my tiny 1024x600 screen becomes usable with panning and I can't understand why I can't achieve this simply with xorg.conf. Can anyone see what changes I need to make? xorg.conf looks like this...(some clippage) Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "X.org Configured" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" EndSection Section "Files" ModulePath "/usr/lib/xorg/modules" FontPath "catalogue:/etc/X11/fontpath.d" FontPath "built-ins" EndSection Section "Module" Load "dbe" Load "extmod" Load "dri" Load "dri2" Load "record" Load "glx" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" ModelName "LCD Panel 1280x1024" Modeline "1024×600" 48.96 1024 1064 1168 1312 600 601 604 622 \ -HSync +VSync EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Card0" Driver "intel" VendorName "Intel Corporation" BoardName "Mobile 945GME Express Integrated Graphics Controller" BusID "PCI:0:2:0" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Card0" Monitor "Monitor0" SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "1024x600" Depth 24 Virtual 1280 1024 EndSubSection EndSection -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
