You are a a very important meeting, (and are very proud of your OS, its not windoze). You fire up the projector, connect the laptoy and la! the resolutions dont match, you have to tinker with Xorg.conf to get it right, and everyone is asking.. what the hell is he doing? (and someone with an apple laughts at you proudly) anyway, what packages in KDE3.5 and/or FC5 are responsible for detecting a projector automagically (and its proper resolution of course) and working right away? rgds eb
have you tried, at first, to change dynamicalli the resolution using CTRL+ALT+"+" or CTRL+ALT+"-" keys? If your Xorg.conf contain multiple resolution line for the monitor, chance are you can find one good also for the projector HTH -- Alessandro Brezzi
