Re: Any way to increase xwindows resolution like xconfigurator or is there a debian way?



# xf86config-4
bash: xf86config-4: command not found

I did find xf86config and it works.
According to /var/log/XFree86.0.log
it is using XF86Config-4 because I see it
in the above log.
The xf86config does not give mode lines with all
those magic numbers like:
ModeLine "1280x1024"    135.00 1280 1296 1440 1688 1024 1025 1028 1066 +hsync +vsync

and I still don't know why there is not xf86config-4
on my system.
Is this a knoppix weirdness?

I asked this yesterday, but I didn't get it working,
so pardon me for re-asking it.

I tried and got:
# dpkg-reconfigure xfree86
Package `xfree86' is not installed and no info is available.
Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files,
and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents.
/usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: xfree86 is not installed

There was something maybe xconfigurator on
redhat, but the  dpkg-reconfigure seems the
right way to me (a novice) to do this on debian
if I could get it to work???

Thanks in advance.
