[SWLUG] Screen resolution problems.

Fri Jun 5 12:55:22 UTC 2009

The latest on the Screen resolution problems...

I reinstalled fedora 10 with the KVM switch removed, and lo and behold,
it picked up the 1024x768 screen res!

Plug the KVM switch in and reboot, and wallop, back to 800x600.

There is no /etc/Xorg.conf file.

Here's some output from the log...
