Do you actually use different resolutions on the same machine and same display ? With modern monitors I was under the impression that native resolution was usually best, at least in X (yes, I sometimes use other resolutions for consoles). From my fairly-recent experiments using X in a VM, I formed the impression that anything less than 1024 wide is probably unusable : I was going to say anything less than 1024x768 is probably unusable, but at the moment I'm on a 1024x600 netbook - and yes, that is often problematic in browsers because of the limited vertical size. And unless you have some high DPI monitor, more is generally better (even if you have to change font sizes in preferences). The modern way to change to a different supported resolution is to use xrandr. ĸen -- `I shall take my mountains', said Lu-Tze. `The climate will be good for them.' -- Small Gods -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
