Hi,

since some time I have the problem with one of my monitors that X most of the time starts with a very low screen-resolution. My way to deal this at the moment is to "init 3/5" with switching off/on the screen until X starts with the proper resolution of 1280x1024. The system always boots with 1280x1024, and when I switch to the command line with CTRL-ALT-F1 I always have the 1280x1024 there. I conlcude therefor that it's not a problem of the monitor itself.

I've tried to solve this problem on the opensuse-de maillinglist, and I tried different settings, but nothing worked.
How can I oblige X to start this monitor with 1280x1024?

I'm running openSuSE 11.4 with:
rpm -qa | grep X11
xorg-x11-libX11-ccache-7.6-2.3.i586
xorg-x11-libX11-7.6-10.2.i586
xorg-x11-libX11-devel-7.6-10.2.i586

I include my xorg.conf at the end of the mail.
Is there any other information you need to help me solving this?

Thanks
Karl
