Hi
I'm running LM 7.2 (usually with KDE).
I've tried using DrakConf - Change Screen Resolution with no success. My
hardware is listed in the dropdowns for both graphics card and monitor so I
select them both Cirrus Login GD544x and Gateway 1572FS.
I choose a resolution of 1024 x 768.
Title: RE: [newbie] Screen Resolution Problem
Thanks Paul - I'm now living the Linux experience @ 1024 x 768 in glorious 8! bit technicolour ;-(
Do you run 32bit colors? Try 16bit colors then.
Keep the settings on the conservative end, linux drivers usually do not push

Looks like your hardware is not happy with more colors. So either you have to
do with 800x600 or the 8bit technicolor experience.
Can't recall everything. If you are not on a notebook, perhaps a different
vidcard would help. I

16 bit 1024x768. But I cannot rule over your money, of course.
What about 24 or 32? Whenever screen res comes up in linux groups--from what
I can see--16 bit seems to be the norm. I'd really like to get at least 24
bit color on
I have a Riva TNT2 with 16MB of RAM. Mandrake recognized the card fine
during install, but when setting the resolution it says 24bpp is not
supported for this card. Also if I try to set my res to 1280x?? it will
instead keep it at 1024x768 and give me a 1280x?? virtual desktop.

These cards have never supported 24bpp.
This is by design, not because of the OS being used.
My card supports 24bpp fine in Windows, although it may be 32bpp. Are you
saying that
