If using Gnome or KDE you can go to START HERE, SETTING, SCREEN RESOLUTION and change resolution from there, similar to the way windows works.
Otherwise, Check your /etc/X11/XFree86-4 file Look for a line similar to: Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "ATI Graphics Adapter" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 #Option "backingstore" Subsection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" Endsection Change the modes line to match the one/many resolutions you wish to have and work on your system. The first mode "1280x1024" will be the default X will start with. You can change to the others with CTL-ALT-+. Lance > > I just installed Debian via Knoppix 3.6.
