Thanks again for reply Gabriel, I did, 1. Commented out the line with "DISPLAYMANAGER_RANDR_MODE_auto" by putting a # in front of it. Saved and closed the file. 2. Ctl+Alt+F1 the GUI vanished and console appeared with login. 3. Logged in as root. 4. Executed 'init 3' 5. Executed 'init 5' 6. GUI re-appeared with same resolution
Did I missed something in these steps? If not, what can be other possibilities? Please help. -- Bikram On Dec 5, 2007 12:38 PM, Gabriel Franco <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello Bikram, > > So, like I said, I really don't know if this will work for you, but > you should give it a try. > > Just comment the file (put a # before de line) on the following line: > > > DISPLAYMANAGER_RANDR_MODE_auto="1024x768_60 64.11 1024 1080 1184 1344 > > 768 769 772 795 -HSync +Vsync" > > And restart X by pressing alt+ctrl F1 to go to terminal, log in as > root, type init 3, and them init 5. > > See if it works and let me know. > > Regards, > > Gabriel > > 2007/12/5, Bikram Chatterjee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > Thanks for your reply Gabriel, > > > > The /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager I have is: > > (I left out the commented lines) > > > > DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER="Xorg" > > DISPLAYMANAGER_XGL_OPTS="-accel glx:pbuffer -accel xv:pbuffer" > > DISPLAYMANAGER="gdm" > > DISPLAYMANAGER_REMOTE_ACCESS="no" > > DISPLAYMANAGER_ROOT_LOGIN_REMOTE="no" > > DISPLAYMANAGER_STARTS_XSERVER="yes" > > DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER_TCP_PORT_6000_OPEN="no" > > DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN="bikram" > > DISPLAYMANAGER_PASSWORD_LESS_LOGIN="no" > > DISPLAYMANAGER_AD_INTEGRATION="no" > > DISPLAYMANAGER_SHUTDOWN="auto" > > DISPLAYMANAGER_RANDR_MODE_VGA="auto" > > DISPLAYMANAGER_RANDR_MODE_auto="1024x768_60 64.11 1024 1080 1184 1344 > > 768 769 772 795 -HSync +Vsync" > > > > Can you please tell me which line(s) I am required to change and with what? > > > > Please forgive my ignorance, I am pretty new with linux.
