Trident8900c setup for 800x600?

Post by Olav Woelfelschneid » Sat, 11 Dec 1993 19:59:34



I've a Trident8900c and tried the Xconf.trident8900c from the current
slackware release. My monitor does only a stable display with 640x480,
though I was even able to display 1024x768i with ms-windoze.
Has anyone a better fitting setup for this vga board?

Thanks in advance,

    Don't know if this helps but I have a Trident 8900CL and I was suprised
at the ease with which I set things up.  I used the default XConfig and
only changed the Mode line to get 800x600.

1. X Apps setup at 800x600

Hello,

I noticed that MOST X Apps take more than 800x600 pixels to display,
the result is that I always have to resize and/or move windows around.

I'm not rich anough to buy a 1024x768 NI monitor and I wonder if there
is a way to work around this problem.  For example, netscape is
difficult to use at this resolution. Is there a way to have those apps
behave at 800x600 ? If it works well under windoze, I can't figure why
it should not work BETTER UNDER LINUX !

I also have problems with fonts that are difficult to read. Please
point me in the right direction and forward your answers to

                        Many thanks !
