X Screensize Mystery

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I installed the system-config-display and duly set up
for a Viewsonic 21.  This CRT has a 1993 date on it
which likely predates VGA probing.

After setting the display size, root's gnome desktop
failed to appear.  So I got rid of the xorg.conf file,
and the desktop came back on the next startx
(or was it xinit?).

Strangely enough, the preferences-display now
has a 1024x768 option, which is the default now.

During this messing around yum update repeatedly
wedged on testing transaction.  An ls also wedged.
Both had to be killed with -9.

Another reboot and Linux felt much better.
Yum update and ls no longer wedge themselves.


Mysterious.
