Jan, thanks for the reply. Before giving you the results let me clarify a couple of points. 1) Before the upgrade to 10.3 (when both the desktop and laptop were 10.0) images looked the same on both. I could build a powerpoint presentation on the desktop and it looked the same on the laptop. Pictures looked the same. So prior to the upgrade everything was great. 2) Ignore the laptop for a moment. Powerpoint presentations and .jpgs that were on the desktop computer (10.0) prior to the upgrade now look wrong on the upgraded desktop (10.3). So images that previously looked landscape rectangular on the desktop now look square. I only mentioned the laptop as a note of comparison between a 10.0 set up that seems to work properly and a 10.3 set up that does not. That said, here's the information you requested: For the 10.3 desktop being viewed on a 20" Viewsonic 20 monitor: xdpyinfo | grep resolution 80X64 dots per inch xdpyinfo | grep dimensions 1280X768 pixels 406X305 mm And for the 10.0 LinuxCertified laptop xdpyinfo | grep resolution 86X84 dots per inch xdpyinfo | grep dimensions 1024X768 pixels 302X232 mm Note: the resolution on the laptop cannot be increased. It is at its limit. Thanks! Gil -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
