[ILUG-Cochin.org] how to change screen resolution in Lenny

[Sreenadh H]

Hello sir,

In Debian Lenny the resolution of the monitor is detected automatically
by the xserver. In some monitors it causes some issues. I too had the
same problem. I copied some lines from xorg.conf of my Debian etch
to Lenny to solve the problem. Here is the solution.

Add the following lines to

Section "Screen" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf

DefaultDepth    24
SubSection "Display"
                Depth           24
                Modes           "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection

Hope this will solve you problem.

Regards,
Sreenadh
