Your xorg.conf file looks fine, but you don't have anything lower than 1024x768 specified in your configuration as indicated below. You may have to recreate a new xorg.conf file with the correct monitor and driver settings. I did mine manually a long long time ago, but I think you can use xorgconfig to detect most of your settings for you...if so...hopefully that will fix you up.

Hi,I am a newbie to gentoo enviorment. My system got restarted due to power failiure without getting shutdown properly... Now after rebooting my system, when i do startx to move to KDE the screen appers to be in resolution mode of 640 x 480 instead of 1024 x 768.
So my question is how can i change the screen resolution back to 1024 x 768. Herewith attached is a copy on my xorg.conf file .. Thanx to u in advance for helping me through with it Thnx  Warm Regards

Re: [gentoo-user] uname -a question

2006-01-30 Thread Jerry Eastmanhouser
I thought that this was in the top 4 lines of the kernel Makefile.
It's embedded in the kernel after the kernel is compiled.
Example is from my servers below for the 2.4 kernel.
The extraversion line is set to whatever I want...it just appends
that to the end of kernel name...so if you want to have two 2.4.31
kernels you just change the extra version to something different
to differenciate between the kernels.

Standard location is going to be /usr/src/linux/Makefile

VERSION = 2PATCHLEVEL = 4SUBLEVEL = 31EXTRAVERSION = -gentoo-r1
KERNELRELEASE=$(VERSION).$(PATCHLEVEL).$(SUBLEVEL)$(EXTRAVERSION)

  added the 2.6.14-r4-new string when I built that kernel. You need to set it to , but it's not critical for now.So true! I am annoyed by this but as far as I can see, the only way to get rid
of the string is to rebuild my kernel. I guess I'll wait for the next versionbump.--Regards, Ernie--gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
