How to check screen resolution under XSun Server (x86)

Hi,I changed my X Server to XSun and configured it to 1280x800 (same virtual resolution) f黵 my wide screen notebook. Is there any way to check if the resolution is right?Thanks,Marco

you might try kmconfig command to re-configure your display setting and choose to test it then also before saving the changes.hope it helps.-van.

To see the current display resolution use "xdpyinfo".

Use the kdmconfig program to change your display settings.

I did this, but end up at 1152x768 (Toshiba M30 with 15,4" wide screen). No idea how to get rid of that problem.

Either you should choose the correct driver with supported resolution of 1280x800 of widescreen,

Or, try some generic driver that gives you the resolution of 1280x800. That should work.

If you don't have 1280x800 at all, then 1280x1207 should work too. (Wait, I can't remember exactly 1207 or 1270, you should check it out and see... sorry, it goes blank on me).

Hope it helps.
