Google hates me tonight, but I'll try again. For some reason google kept deleting my messages some hours back, but my last message got through, so maybe this one will too. Seemingly my situation isn't an isolated case either. But anyway, lets get on-topic (and hope this successfully posts this time). Use this command "xrandr" in dom0 terminal to find the supported resolutions on your machine, as well as the screens exact name. The exat name is important. For example my screens name is eDP1, but you put eDP-1 in your command. Is your screen really named that and not eDP1? It might explain partly why it doesn't work. Run "xrandr" in dom0 terminal, nothing else, just that one command. It'll give you a print out of all connected screens, supported resolutions and screen names. Also, this is a working command, I use it my self daily. xrandr --output eDP1 --mode 1920x1080 Remember to only put a resolution that your setup supports. Even supported resolutions can look bad though, so try aim for one with proper proportions. Most normal setups support 1920x1080, if you can see it in the list, then yours also support it, in that case give that one a try to begin with. Remember to double check your screen's name, even a single letter difference can make it stop working. First test the command in dom0 terminal, if it works, and you found your ideal settings, then you can turn it into a script, which afterwards can be either keybinded, autostarted, or turned into a shortcut (whichever you prefer most). in a clean dom0, type this (no sudo here!) nano screen-resolution-script.sh Terminal becomes an editor, now just write this exact command into your window, modified with the values (resolution and screen name) that fits your system. The Nano editor can be saved by "ctrl+x", keep eyes on window as you do this, ans you'll notice the message at bottom. Something like 2Do you want to save?" Press Y for yes, and accept the name you gave it earlier with enter. Now your script is located in dom0 at /home/your-user-name/screen-resolution-script.sh In order to make it executeable, write this in dom0 terminal chmod +x screen-resolution-script.sh Now, for example keybind it, type this in dom0 again xfce4-keyboard-settings a window will popup, go to the "Application Shortcuts" and click the add button. Now add the path to your script, and bind a key. I gotta hurry running now, so I cant explain the other two approaches right now. But it's quickly done too. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
