I have a Geforce FX 5200 and a samsung 19 inch sync master 955df. Now in Yast under the monitor settings it says it can do 1280x1024 and I have run 1280x1024 but if I right click on the desktop and go to configure desktop and go to size it will only let me select 1024x768. Is there anyway to crank my resolution up. I already installed the lastest drivers from YOU for my nvidia card and I get the splash screen and everything works. I am just limited by the resolution. Thanks in Advance Armando
This is from /etc/X11/XF86Config Section "Screen" DefaultDepth 16 SubSection "Display" Depth 15 Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 16 Modes "1024x768" "800x600" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 32 Modes "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 8 Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection Device "Device[0]" Identifier "Screen[0]" Monitor "Monitor[0]" EndSection Note in my color depth 16 I have two modes. Find in Yast your moniter setup and what color depth your using then in your Section "Screen" find how many modes you have set. CWSIV On Sun, 2004-05-23 at 08:02, Armando Cerna wrote:

I have the same video card and a 17" Samsung syncmaster 765mb monitor. It works well with 1280x1024 @ 80hz here. Try to uncheck all the resolutions except the 1280x1024 in Yast video settings/change/desktop/color and resolution/change configuration/properties/resolutions. (It's a quite long way to get here :)) I had the same feature as you mentioned, before. Unchecking solved it. If only 1280x1024 selected, the X must use it :) Anyway there is a cool applet in Suse 9.1 System/Desktop Applet/Screen Resize & Rotate. It works like in the nvidia taskbar icon in windows. You can resize your desktop with 2 clicks. regards Tibor
