Description Forgotten User kBMf6VxSAI 2008-05-11 20:06:51 UTC

Using openSUSE 11.0 KDE boot CD to boot into KDE, the screen resolution is only 1024x768. Screen is normally at 1280x800.

Trying change the screen resolution doesn't work.
 - In YAST/Hardware/Graphics Card ... dialog - Changed Monitor to 1280x800@60Hz
 - Run Test successfully + saved.
 - No effect (so far)!
 - restarted KDE/X11 by logging out and back into it, no changes, still wrong resolution again.
 - CTRL + ALT + BS and logging in : resolution right.

Hardware: Sony Vaio VGN S5M
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce Go 6400 (0x168)

Looks like the native resolution of your internal panel has not been detected,
but you can change this already during installation.

Looks like you're using kdm4, where the default for TerminateServer is false
instead of true. This is a duplicate.
