However it will still only allow me a best resolution of 800x600 even though there are higher resolutions in the xorg.conf file. What else limits the resolution and how do I change it?
What gfx card? what monitor? have you got a copy of the xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.0.log somewhere on the net for us to take a look at?
This could get messy! :-)
I'll see what I can see across the network here.....
OK, after a bit of scp'ing about you can see them:-
http://home.isbd.net/xorg.conf http://home.isbd.net/Xorg.0.log
I suspect that what I need is to tell X that my monitor can cope with higher resolutions but what's a 'safe' way of doing that?
While I'm about modifying xorg.conf what incantation is needed to tell it to use a serial Mouse Systems mouse?
