xorg-configure
This will generate an xorg.conf file (with current drivers) in the root folder
Editing the xorg.conf file:
If you have problems with the refresh rate (which has an old CRT monitor), add in the "Monitor" this line "VertRefresh 70" (with quotes and monitor refresh rate support)
To change resolution goto Section "Screen" in the subsection "Display" in default of your choice and put the first "800x600"
After finishing the proofreading xorg.conf / usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d / and use the startx command and will have its fixed resolution
Code:
