2003-02-13 Thread David Chow 
Hi all,

I am new to Xfree86 development. Is it possible to implement an X server 
that can dynamically changing the physical resolution (resolution in the 
framebuffer, not virtual). Please comment. Thanks.

David Chow

Yes, use the RandR extension on the upcoming 4.3 release. 
Try xrandr.
