FYI, the following workaround allowed me to keep using 1280x1024. I've added the following lines to /etc/gdm/Init/Default : xrandr --newmode "1280x1024_60.00" 108.00 1280 1328 1440 1688 1024 1025 1028 1066 +hsync +vsync xrandr --addmode VGA-0 1280x1024_60.00 Now, I can select the preferred mode with gnome-display-properties and it is kept across session restarts. Hope this helps. Best regards, -- Olivier BERGER (OpenPGP: 1024D/B4C5F37F) http://www.olivierberger.com/weblog/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
