First did the installation recognize the monitor/video card? On my laptop where I just installed FC 3 it was unknown and defaulted to 800x600. Do not quite remember my steps and that unit is doing an extensive update, so forgive me if my instructions are not exact. Begin by going to System Tools (or Settings) look for something like the configure monitor. Pick yours out of the list, begins with Manufacturer, mine was something like Generic LCD for my IBM laptop. If I remember properly, the next option is choosing the resolution. Regarding desktops, I have changed resolutions on a number of Linux distributions (mostly Mandrake) and it was really no problem. Do not worry prematurely about the OK button. Make your selections and see what happens. > > Thanks for help in advance! > > -- > The Disguised Jedi > disguised.jedi@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:disguised.jedi@xxxxxxxxx> > > Now you have my $0.02.
