Re: Screen resolution
You can tell by looking in /var/log/Xorg.0.log. If after looking at
the log file, the problem isn't readily apparent, post the contents
here, and someone should be able to figure out what's wrong.

The pertinent contents of the log seem to be as follows. Im not sure how
it works. It seems to probe the monitor to see what resolutions it
supports. Should the controller board in the LCD therefore have a list
of supported resolutions on it which it reports back to X?
Im using a controller board from LCDparts.net They claim to have
programmed it for this screen and that if it wasnt programmed correctly
I wouldnt get any image at all and therefore its an OS problem but Im
not convinced.
Thanks for all your help so far!
