Re: screen 1024x768 desktop 1600x1200



	Hi Markus,

	You could do it by editing your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file. I use 24
bit color depth and use a resolution of 1280x1024. So I have a section
in my Screen Configuration as so...

        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           24
                Modes           "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
        EndSubSection

I'm no wizard at it, but I'm pretty sure you want 1024x768 to be the
first resolution listed there followed by the lower resolutions. Or,
a simpler way may be to run 'dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xfree86' and
then pick 1024x768 as you're only resolution in there. That command
assumes that your xserver is the 'xfree86' xserver.

	HTH,

	Jimmy Richards
