[Sorry if you've alread seen a similar post on opensolare.general or
indiana but I only just discovered this desktop group where that
problably should have gone]
I'm a linux inductee to opensolaris, so much of my experience is
colored by that background.
I'm used to having an xorg.conf file to edit and do a few things I've
grown accustomed to.
Probably the most desirous (to me) of them, is the ability to have a
massive desktop (like maybe 2048x1536 or something) to knock around
on. There is side benefit too; most people find it really annoying to
work on so that keeps them off my desktop...
I've been able to do this on linux through a `Virtual' setting in
xorg.conf.
In one of the `Display' sections like this:
Subsection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024" #"1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
Virtual 2048 1536
ViewPort 0 0
EndSubsection
(Notice the: `Virtual 2048 1536')
My hardware is NOT able to display that large a resolution any other
way. And I believe is not equipped to physically do it. But somehow
the `Virtual' term allows it to happen.
The card is a: GeForce FX 5700LE
I have the same card on my osol box.
Can anyone coach me about how to make that happen on Opensolaris?
Since Opensolaris apprears to get the instructions for xorg by some
other technique.. I wonder if a user can even setup an xorg.conf file
and have it work.
