i have a dell Intel 845 G/GL Integrated Video card
it will only display in 800x600
there wasn't much in the bios to upgrade video card setting
one setting i increased from 1mg to 8mg those were my only choices
any help will be helpful
You don't say what resolution you would like to use, nor which version of Fedora you are using. Sounds like Fedora Core 5 and you might need to get it to a widescreen aspect ratio.
Otherwise, do a Google search for "845 +xorg.conf +resolution +modeline" (or any combination of those four terms) - you may be able to locate a posting that mimics your problem more closely.
I set up the resolution from my desktop for each user with System --> Preferences --> Screen Resolution
Every time Xorg was modified it would crash or revert to 1600 X1400
thank you guys for the help
after looking through all the stuff you gave me
i found the problem
to be honest i am used to the evil MS OS
usually what monitor you have doesnt make a difference
what the problem was is that fedora didnt know what monitor i was using
once i added the monitor i was using in the display settings it allowed me to adjust my display thank you all for your help
Yes same issue here-but when i try to select my model monitor, the "ok" button just stays dimmed out??? wt?
