[newbie] virtual desktop and riva128 probs

2000-09-11 Thread Taamensu

Hello,

I got a PIII-500, 96M RAM, and a RIVA128.  First off, how do I get rid of the 
virtual desktop option?  You know, when you can have windows that overlap the 
edge of your screen.  I remember an option when I installed it in the Xwin 
configuration part, but I can't find it in any of the configuration options 
now.  Will I have to reload just to get rid of it?.blarg...

Secondly, I am having problems with switching resolutions.  I'm set right now 
at 32 bit color, 640x480, with the monitor set to whatever the closest one 
is.  This setup works fine for now, but eats up desktop space.  I've tried 
switching the monitor settings but it doesn't matter, no dice.  Also, how 
'bout changing the refresh rate?I can tell mine needs to be bumped up, 
but can't figure out how

Thanks in advance,
Mario
