Good point about not being able to RANDR up, however you can system-config-display up. If your display blanks out due to high resolution, you can't RANDR down, system-config-display, or for most, use said machine to get online assistance. If th display blanks out, the text make be too small for some to read and navigate to a tool the know nothing about called RANDR (maybe it has a better name in the Gnome menu) -- Fedora 7 : sipping some of that moonshine ( www.pembo13.com ) -- Fedora-desktop-list mailing list Fedora-desktop-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-desktop-list
