Increasing screen resolution
Hi
I have started a new thread on this to avoid hijacking a similar thread 
from someone else.
My current screen resolution is 1400x1050 with a refresh rate of 50Hz.
This is my xorg.conf file:
# nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig

I'd like to increase the resolution up to 1600x1200 with a higher 
refresh rate as well if possible. My monitor can take it, but my 
xorg.conf file no longer seems to have the section wherein one can tweak 
those settings.
I am using an Nvidia GeForce 8500GT card on a Lenny machine.
How would I go about increasing the resolution?
Thanks
Andy
