sorry to bring up this old thread.
i just have time to try this again.

i boot up puppy linux from usb and copy the xorg.conf from it.
puppy can display 1024x768 resolution in my hardware.
but after i copy the working xorg.conf from puppy into centos,
the centos X just wont start at all.

below attached the xorg.conf content from puppy linux for your review.

so anything i can correct to make it work on centos 5.1???

 Were you able to select your monitor from the list or are you choosing
 some kind of generic monitor?

 Move your existing xorg.conf out of the way before running
 system-config-display so that it's forced to start from scratch.  It
 probably got the wrong HorizSync and VertRefresh values.

 If that doesn't work you'll need to find a manual or other description
 of your monitor and set HorizSync and VertRefresh and possibly a
 couple of Modeline entries by hand.


yes. i removed xorg.conf to generate it from scratch. i selected
generic 1024x768 monitor.
still cant get 1024x768 to work.
on some other distro and livecd i can even get 1280x1024.

800x600 works perfect. but it's just too low for me.

 OK, I am just kidding.  Do what ralph said and run system-config-display
  from the command line.


that's not installed with kde.
so i installed it with yumex.
run it. set my monitor and my resolution both as 1024x768.
startx. and i got blank screen.

replace xorg.conf with the backup to get back to my old low resolution.

anything else i can try out?

Re: [CentOS] display resolution

2007-12-27 Thread dny 
xorg.conf dont have anything indicating the resolution.

i see this:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto#head-0e3051713171cb5d1bf49dc2dc7bea24eb9ed83e

install 915resolution, change the driver from i810 to intel as said on
the instruction.
and X stop working.

i do X -configure and copy the new xorg.conf and get back to same old
resolution.
still cant get higher resolution.

any idea??

 You should look into the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file the check the

 work, If not, check the video driver in the same file.

[CentOS] display resolution

2007-12-26 Thread dny 
hi.
i got old acer veriton 3600g with intel 82865g graphics and should be able
to display at least 1024x768.

i'm linux newbie and this is my first hands on centos and it's centos 5.1.
why is it i can only use 800x600 resolution?
i tried install other distro and also few livecd and most distro can give me
1024x768
anyway i can get more screen on centos5.1?

tia.
