Red Hat 9 comes with XFree86 v4.3. This version includes a new X
extension called XRANDR, which allows dynamic screen resolution
resizing, without exiting X, or having different config files.
To use it, first configure your X server config file to use the normal
(high) resolution. Then you can use the "xrandr" command to see what
resolutions are supported, and to switch between them.
For example, on my machine:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] paul]$ xrandr
SZ: Pixels Physical Refresh
*0 1280 x 960 ( 433mm x 325mm ) *60
1 1152 x 864 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 85 75
2 1024 x 768 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 84 75 70 60
3 800 x 600 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 85 75 72 65 60 56
4 640 x 480 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 85 75 72 60
5 832 x 624 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 74
6 700 x 525 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 74 70 59
7 640 x 512 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 75 60
8 720 x 400 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 85
9 640 x 400 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 85
10 576 x 432 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 85 75
11 640 x 350 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 85
12 512 x 384 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 84 75 70 60
13 416 x 312 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 74
14 400 x 300 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 85 75 72 60 56
15 320 x 240 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 85 75 72 60
16 320 x 200 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 85
17 320 x 175 ( 433mm x 325mm ) 85
Current rotation - normal
Current reflection - none
Rotations possible - normal
Reflections possible - none
To switch to 640x480:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] paul]$ xrandr --size 640x480
There currently is no GUI for this, but I suspect that Red Hat will
include one, or write one, for their next release.
