Hi, In the original posting (not from me) someone wished to be able to switch resolution (often people wishing to run games requiring a lower resolution)... In my case, I have an old notebook with a 800x600 screen. When I dock the notebook, my workstation has a much hicher resolution I select then 1024x768 (limited by the graphic memory of the notebook rather than by the monitor) without specifying a virtual resolution, X default to a "virtual" resolution which is the highest resolution specified in the mode line. When one switches the resolution down to something lower (using Ctrl Alt - for instance) then one gets only part of the desktop displayed. The trick, as I mentionned, can be to have more than one XF86Config and to use two user-ids one for the higher resolution the other for the lower one. However, I find that solution less than elegant to say the least... Lionel --- Jeroen ten Berge <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > So are you switching resolutions than ?
