Monitor resolution .....
Hello all,
I'm sorry to bother you, but I am in TROUBLE. I had to swap out my
monitor because it was defective and the temporary one doesn't seem to
support the resolution I was using, so now when I start the X-window screen
is just 'black'. I can switch to the other consoles but just do not know
enough to edit anything to lower the resolution so that the monitor can
work.
Can anyone make any (reasonable
) suggestion as to how I can make the
change - perhaps even at boot-time - so that I can work.
Thank you all for your help,
David D.

Xorg is all new to me and I'm assuming you are on FC2 there
In the old
days, XF86Config would have done the job for you.
Now, Start your X session and try (crtl-alt -) and see if that drops the
resolution and scan freq down enough for you to use the gui tools.
