Hello. Please help ;( I am trying to run an application using VMware with Windows. The application requires switches display to 640x480 mode using MS DirectX. However my display switches to 1280x1024 with looks really bad. I checked it many times - you set explicitly 640x480 mode in windows desktop properties, and display turns into 1280x1024. X from virtual FreeBSD act in the same way. Moreover, virtual system boot screen (when setup checks the stuff) switches my host to 1280x1024 too ;( How do I set up things so that when subsystem sets 640x480 - I would get it the right things on my physycal display? PS. It seems that this is my local X issue - the highest built-in vesa mode on my system is 1280x1024. The man xorg.conf says: DISPLAY SUBSECTION (snip) Modes "mode-name" ... (snip) This optional entry specifies the list of video modes to use. (snip) When this entry is omitted, (snip) then the selection will be taken from the built-in VESA standard modes. But why the highest mode gets chosen when 640x480 is requested?
