linux display resolutions

(1/2) > >>

smokey:
I'm helping someone to set up linux on their box, however I cannot find how to use a different resolution than those that are available.

His screen (A SGI flatpanel) needs the resolution 1600x1024. He is also using a Geforce3 TI200.

What do I have to modify to get support for this resolution?

Thanks in advance

/etc/X11/XF86Config.

Down around the bottom, theres the reso you can do at each depth, try to keep as many avalable as possible

I tried that - it just dumped me at the one below it (1024x768).

Doogee:
buggered if i know then.
sorry mate.

Doogee:
how about try removing all the others, or something, i heard someone got it working that way, if it doesnt work im sure yoiu can get yaself around a command line and put a resolution back in that works (just comment it out so its easier to fix)
