Hi all,
I am trying to add resolution options to the graphical environment but can not find the appropriate configuration file in use.
I added my resolution option to /etc/X11/xorg.conf and to /etc/XF86Config and did tellinit 3 and tellinit 5 each time. After that I do not see the new option added to the list when I access System Settings... Display... Settings.
This is how I added the option:
Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 16 Modes "1280x800" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 Modes "1280x800" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection EndSection
I am using FC3 as VMware guest OS under Windows XP.
I have a laptop with monitor at 1280x800.
I have read man xorg.conf and tried to determine the appropriate file by looking at the paths this man page says xorg searches and still can not find the appropriate file.
I can not find the -config option because I do not know where xorg is started. Looked at /etc/inittab and it runs /etc/X11/prefdm -nodaemon but I believe it is not started there. Or it is?
My environment seems not to have a $XORGCONFIG variable set (echo $XORGCONFIG returns a blank line).
Can somebody help me please?
Thanks a lot in advance.
