This above _is_ the settings from sax2.  How do I change settings that
are already correct?

_This_ is the problem.  KDE is imposing bad desktop settings on good X
settings, which is making the images too large and distorted.  I need to
make KDE do the right thing, but I can't find any way to give it the
right thing to do.

You can try running sax2 and see if it will let you setup the display there or 
edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to add the lines.

[opensuse] HP dv6000CTO laptop -- kde has wrong resolution

2006-12-15 Thread John E. Perry
I installed 10.2 this past week, and immediately noticed that the images
were too large and seemed somewhat distorted.  Today I took a hard look
at the display settings and I think I see why.  Now I need to know how
to fix it.

The display adapter is correctly detected as an Intel 945GM, and all
parameters make sense, including the correct monitor resolution,
1280X800 @ 24-b depth, 3d acceleration enabled.

The display is correctly detected as LGPHILLIPS.., same settings as
above.  All this worked perfectly in 10.1 (

Looking at the KDE setup, the display is set up for 1024X768.  And the
only alternatives given are 800X600 and 640X480.  I can find no way to
fix the KDE settings.

Help!
