Hi,
I'm using Fedora 3 with IceWM window manager. The screen section of my xorg.conf file is given below. My problem is I want to start XWindows in 800x600 as the 'default' resolution. Some applications doesn't fit in the screen in 800x600, in that case I want to switch to 1024x768 resolution using CTRL + ALT + PLUS key combination. Is this possible?. Under the current setting it always starts at 1024x768 resolution.


Thanks,
Sudheer


Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 16 Modes "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection EndSection




Your default depth is "24" and the order of supported modes says that you should use 1024x768 first. Try this:

Change the line
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
to
Modes "800x600" "640x480" "1024x768"
Save the file and restart X.

Hi,
Thanks. I've tried this but in 800x600,640x480 modes, the virtual desktop is always bigger than the actual screen width.


When I set the 'Virtual' setting to 800 600, I'm not able to go to 1024x768 resolution. Could you please help me a little more?




Thanks, Sudheer
