Not 100% sure, but I seem to remember that xvidtune does what you want


It does. Thank you.

Not 100% sure, but I seem to remember that xvidtune does what you want 
(among other things). Just launch it and read the current resolution and 
refresh rates. Note that, with modular X, you might not have it 
installed and thus need to emerge it.

In the days of LCD monitors do people still use that?  Anyway xdpyinfo
(or perhaps even xwininfo) should work.

[gentoo-user] finding current X mode

2007-03-20 Thread Jorge Almeida

Is there some utility to find which mode (in X) is the current one? It
would be usefull to find out which mode looks better, when switching
with Ctrl-Alt-KeypadPlus...
