display/resolution

Postby pbecks1963 » Sun Dec 21, 2008 2:32 am

Hello,

I fucked up a perfectly good amahi install because i changed the display to the wrong monitor type. (i wasn't satisfied with the resolutuon of 800x600, my philips 170 S tft monitor is capable off i higher resolution!). I changed it to a philips monitor which looked like the 170S. (17 inch). BUT NOW MY MONITOR GIVES AN ERROR THAT IT CAN'T DISPLAY THAT RESOLUTION. I can however go to a terminal (ctrl -alt-F x) and login in non-graphically.

HOW DO I CHANGE THE DISPLAY BACK? (something to do with xorg if i remember correctly...)

two options.

one is to use amahi headless :)

but i guess you do want to use the desktop login. :D

Code: Select all

system-config-display
should do it.
