 |
|
After installing Xorg-X11 i found out that my Monitor resolution [1600*900 60] wasn't there. After searching and asking in irc channel i found this way:
| Code: | creating with cvt
cvt 1600 900
1600x900 59.95 Hz (CVT 1.44M9) hsync: 55.99 kHz; pclk: 118.25 MHz
Modeline "1600x900_60.00" 118.25 1600 1696 1856 2112 900 903 908 934 -hsync +vsync |
| Code: | making
xrandr --newmode "1600x900_60.00" 118.25 1600 1696 1856 2112 900 903 908 934 -hsync +vsync
|
| Code: | Adding
xrandr --addmode VGA1 "1600x900_60.00" |
| Code: | Changing
xrandr --output VGA1 --mode "1600x900_60.00" |
Note: after restart all of the above procedures will lost.
in the arch linux wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xrandr#Making_xrandr_changes_persistent says a way to make it stick and i did it is my /etc/X11/xorg.conf
| Code: | Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Xeon"
Option "Monitor-VGA1" "VGA screen"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "VGA screen"
Modeline "1600x900_60.00" 118.25 1600 1696 1856 2112 900 903 908 934 -Hsync +Vsync
Option "PreferredMode" "1600x900"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Primary Screen"
Device "Intel Xeon"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1600x900"
EndSubSection
EndSection |
But there is no use after all this work. the restart will undo all the work. even the 1600*900 will disappear from the xrandr command output.
How could i make it Persistent
