If you want to use gui tools, run

redhat-config-xfree86

as root.

If you fail in running this command, install the related rpm.

Also, you might want to edit /etc/X11/XF86Config manually.

Edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. Look for the Screen section.

Thanks for your reply

I have used Xconfigurator and sets up ok, but I cannot seem to load a 
800x600 desktop.

I have no idea how to switch from the current 640x 480 (I think thats 
what it is) to my prefered 800x600.

On my RH72 system, it comes from Xconfigurator-4.9.39-1.i386.rpm.

Yes, it should be installed if you installed X. If you don't have it
make sure you have the XFree86 rpms and Xconfigurator rpm.

My system doesn't seem to have that - is it installed by default and can
you get to it from konsole because whenever I try that it says that it
can't find the file. :/

Thanks!

Re: Screen Resolution??

[Rajagopal Subash]

Hi run Xconfigurator command from the prompt which will identify the video
controller and will ask for the resolution.

Re: Screen Resolution

[Philippe Moutarlier]

There are tools like Xconfigurator which could help you producing the file

/etc/X11/XF86Config


However, I like doing things manually : at the end X will use this file in any case.

So, edit it under root and find this kind of section in the file :

Section "Screen"
Driver  "accel"
Device  "ATI|3D Rage LT Pro AGP-133"
Monitor "My Monitor"
Subsection "Display"
Depth   16
Modes   "1024x768"
ViewPort0 0
EndSubsection
EndSection

Depending on the server you are running (svga, S3 ), you will look for a section 
containng  either 

Driver "svga"

or 

Driver "accel"

Now, look at the line "Modes" in it and write "1024x768" in it.
You can also adjust the screen depth (Depth line above) as I think you let RH 6.0 
install 
itself and it might be in 8 bit mode (you probably want at least 16).

Restart X.

Have a look at Xconfigurator.
Run at the command line.
