Hi, I am running opensuse 11.2 and kde 4.4 on this computer. I have a problem with the screen displaying fonts poorly. The screen is a 1366x768 resolution, and I have a recent Nvidia video card in the box.
The fonts display okay at that resolution until I install the Nvidia driver for the video card. They display okay with whatever the video driver is that is used by Opensuse 11.2 in a new installation. I have tried a couple of different video cards and get the same results.
I have been using a different screen resolution to get the fonts to display in a readable manner (1280x720 or 1024x768), but I think even this could be improved upon if the problem was resolved to display the fonts sharply at the correct resolution.
Anybody have any idea what might be the problem and how to fix it?
Okay, I think that I better try this a different way.
Does anyone know which file the Nvidia driver stores the default screen resolution so that I can change and store the resolution? Then I can set the default to the size that works better and not have to configure it each time that I start the computer.
Have you tried to use the nVidia Settings tool. It is found in the menu under System-->Configuration.

Hi, yes I use that to reset the screen resolution. It is supposed to save it to the X configuration file after I apply a particular screen resolution. But it doesn't do it. On each subsequent startup it autodetects the screen resolution and sets it to the screen's native resolution. I have poked around in the /etc/x.---- files trying to find where the default screen resolution is saved so I can change it to what I want, but without success. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
