Hello all,
I have just installed Fedora 11 on my new computer with
Intel Q33 graphics and could use some help.
When I boot Fedora with my old Samsung 950p CRT
monitor plugged in, the X11 resolution is something
reasonably high (at least 1024x760 I think). But when
I boot it with my new Samsung 2333SW LCD monitor,
X runs at 800x600 resolution with no higher resolutions
available the Gnome "Display" applet..
Per some Google results I tried doing "Xorg -configure :1"
after booting with each monitor but the resulting xorg.conf.new
file are identical. However, when I use that file (which
has a basically empty Monitor section), I now get 1024x
768. But I still can't figure out how to get 1280x1024
or best, 1920x1080.
Any idea how I create a xorg.conf file that will display
at my lcd monitor's native 1920x1080 resolution or any-
thing better than 1024x768?
