Re: How to Change resolution?



Well, silly me. I should have also asked this question as well: what
exactly do I need to change in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 to get the
resolution to change? Also, is there a utility I could use to do that,
not that I mind typing in vi to do the dirty work...

Thanks again!
