How do I use the highest possoble video resolution with xwindows?  I've
tried the -bpp thing, and all it does is make my monitor blink.  I have
to reboot after that.  Should I fix something?

Scott,

When you use the xf86config script, it asks in what order the
resolutions should be triesd for 8bpp, 16bpp, 24bpp.  Just give the
highest resolution as the first.

1. Changing screen resolution AND virtual resolution?

Hi,
Does someone know if it is (or is not!) possible to change both the
screen resolution AND the virtual screen resolution at the same time
with the Ctrl+Alt+Keypad-Plus/Ctrl+Alt+Keypad-Minus keystrokes? I
typically run at 1024x768 but would like to be able to change to 800x600
or 600x480, but without getting the "scrolling" virtual screen as a side
effect.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Max.
