Screen Resolution question

Hello
I have a small problem with screen resolution, i have OS debain etch 4
for a while and i use the server for normal operation, i mean not playing
games or thing like this, anyway my problem is i adjusted the screen
resolution to 1024X768 and each time i start the server the resolution
change to 640X480 i don't know why , i have a LCD 17 monitor and a
regular graphic card 32MB, and then i restart the server again and it
starts with the right one, i just wonder if there is any solution for this
problem ?
Thanks for help in advance

 

Any errors in your logs? What's in /etc/X11/xorg.conf?

 

Thanks again for your hep

hello mr/Falko
Thanks for your reply.
here is the section i think that you want to look at it from x11/xorg.conf:
Section "Device"
Identifier "nVidia Corporation NV5M64 [RIVA TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro]"
Driver "nv"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Radius-73"
Option "DPMS"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "nVidia Corporation NV5M64 [RIVA TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro]"
Monitor "Radius-73"

SubSection "Display"

EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"

EndSubSection
EndSection

Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Default Layout"
Screen "Default Screen"
InputDevice "Generic Keyboard"
InputDevice "Configured Mouse"
EndSection
Concerning the logs no errors .
the informaion up in the file for the device is right also the monitor, also
i set screen resolution to 1024 X 768.
Thanks again

 

Hi kadi,

please remove all other resolutions than 1024x768 from your xorg.conf - additionally you can delete depth 1 - 16.

The corresponding part could look like this:

Code:

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "nVidia Corporation NV5M64 [RIVA TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro]"
Monitor "Radius-73"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1024x768"
EndSubSection
EndSection

After that reboot the system or log out and in again to take the changes effect.

Best regards,

Olli
