Jason,
I usually just keep bashing away changing Xconfigurator settings
(almost) at random until something works.
CTRL-ALT-+ will change screen resolution on the fly (if you select several
in Xconfigurator), but this has not worked with an Intel 3D video board I
have at work.
CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE, fortunately, does work at bailing out from a
"glitched" X-windows session.

Hello all -
I'm happy to have a working Mandrake system on the first try - except I
can't get the video to 800x600. I'm stuck at 640x480 8bits - making the KDE
too small to work with... sometimes i can't see the "ok" buttons!
When I set this up (using Linux - 4 - windows) and tried using 800x600
8bits (i didn't try 16bits, giving me 65536 colors) and it said "problem
with X windows" and brought me back to the video setup where I put in
640x480, and it worked.
***>>>Now that I have the KDE installed at 640x480, how do i change this
to 800x600 16 bits??? I couldn't find anything in the menus on the K
"start" menu.
...and is X Windows referred to in the setup the same as the KDE that is
actually used?
thanks for your help!
