http://forums.fedoraforum.org – The monitor I have is a iiyama ProLite 82274HDS. The resolution of the display has according to fedora 17 a maximum of 1280x1024. It can't be changed in a higher value. With Windows 7 it operates in resoluton style 1920x1080 without any problems. First the xorg.conf file in /etc/X11 has the structure Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "vesa" EndSection Adding an extra section to the xorg.conf file Section "Monitor" Modes "1920X1080" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" (HowTos)

Stories similar to fedora 17 screen resolution changing ?

Just installed Ubuntu 9.10, 32 bit, and my standard 17" LCD monitor is not recognized. Instead, I'm stuck with system defaults and a max resolution of 800x600 (640x480 after installing the nvidia drivers). Since the other 7 distros I'm booting are happily finding the monitor and I'm used to 1024x768, I'm not enjoying the experience.

Hello members,

My xorg.conf is below, I would appreciate anyone with more experience than I have to make suggestions for changes that may solve my problem. Some games/3d apps work fine, example; tremulous, trem fusion, however, supertux, extreme tux racer, tuxkart etc give me sync out of range on my monitor.
