Yeah, it should work, unless you are using the Option Rotate in your
xorg.conf, in which case the extension gets disabled.

Check your /var/log/Xorg.0.log.  Something like:

grep -i randr /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Yup, I use the open source nvidia driver and it works for me. No
mention of randr in my xorg.conf file.

  Try ctrl alt then the + or - key on the numeric keypad.
 
  Hope that helps, before you flunk the presentation.
 
 
 Use xrandr, it will list all available resolutions, then, xrandr -s
 # where # is the number associated with the desired resolution.

It is a built-in extension (you should see (II) Initializing built-in
extension RANDR in /var/log/Xorg.0.log), but the GPU driver needs to
support it.  What GPU and driver are you using?

oh ok, that might be it. I use the open source nvidia driver (nv). But I

Well, I'm using X.org radeon driver and it works. That's all I can tell about
