Yes I ran it as root, bue due to probs. with zypper, and made a clean install. Now I have no xorg.conf, and the resolution is only 1024x768 :-(
When you boot please go to the var/log/ and post Xorg.0.log . If you have /etc/X11/xorg.conf please post that too.
If you have access to IRC that would speed up process quite a bit.
They are to be found here:

Above means that you have to set manually monitor type in xorg.conf. This is original section monitor: Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Unknown" ModelName "Unknown" HorizSync 28.0 - 33.0 VertRefresh 43.0 - 72.0 Option "DPMS" EndSection "Identifier" is mandatory, and current "Monitor0" is fine. It is just arbitrary string used by the xorg to identify monitor. "VendorName" and "ModelName" are for your convenience, they are not used by xorg to determine graphic configuration. More can be found in xorg.conf manual. (Someone put wiki page about using manuals in SDB? Now it is corrected) http://en.opensuse.org/Manual_pages also I recommend to learn basic usage of: http://en.opensuse.org/Midnight_Commander http://http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Midnight_Commander_tips#Lynx_like_motion It is Swiss Army knife for console operations and once learned you will ask yourself how you did it without. It will save you learning a lot of commands and its switches. (my words in the article :) You have to add DisplaySize of your monitor and probably correct HorizSync and VertRefresh using Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Unknown" ModelName "Unknown" DisplaySize width height HorizSync 28.0 - 33.0 VertRefresh 43.0 - 72.0 Option "DPMS" EndSection DisplaySize is in millimeters and you can literally put what you can measure on the screen, although it would be better to put vendor's data from monitor manual. HorizSync is in kHz. (vendor's data from monitor manual) VertRefresh is in Hz. (vendor's data from monitor manual)
The xorg.conf is very virgin like, as it is just made using nvidia-xconfig
I'm on IRC now as erikja Are you there, and what nick do you use?.
You found it, but yes, I was not there. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
