Hi,

just installed a new zenwalk 7.0, monitor is samsung bx 2250 which has a 1080p resolution, it works. when switched to a smaller monitor, resolution is 1366x768http://www.aocmonitorap.com/global/monitor_218.php, now I can only get 800 x 600, how to adjust this? Thanks,

Angelo

Hi,

Try running videoconfig, as root, from init 3.

The easy way is to use menu/settings/display
It shows you the displays that you are using and the possible resolutions. So just check the monitor that you want to use and choose
the right resolution.
If does not work means that you still have to configure your graphic card.
So if does not work post what is your graphic intel-nvidia-ati??

OK, glad it worked. Can you edit your first post and mark the title as solved?
