Re: Screen resolution problem / unstable



Hi,
I daren't go to the KDE desktop settings here as it will go directly to
800 x 600 max .. grin
Meanwhile though I have an Athlon 64 3000, 1Gb ram, and a Siluro GF4 MX-8X
E-Bios V4.18.20.15.0 (c)1996-2000 Nvidia 64Mb Card.
Oddly I havent had this problem before, but whether that is due to Fedora
and SuSe being more plug and play .. I have considered maybe downloading
the NVidia bios update util, but I know that if I do that and update the
kernel I need to get the source code and re-patch the kernel.
My only other thought (bearing in mind I am a newbie at Debian) is maybe
there is some tweaking I can do in the X server config?
I appreciate your help.
Regards
Steve Sheldon
