SUSE 11.2 wide screen 1440x900 resolution

Recently, the system was changed from SUSE10.3 to. It looks pretty much better. However, my display is 19-inch wide screen. It takes a lot of effort to set the resolution of 1440x900 in 11.2.

After the driver is installed, set the screen width resolution in 10.3. Select vsea 1440x900. However, it is not allowed under 11.2. After searching online for half a day, I finally found a solution.

1. First install the nvdia driver

My nvdia 8400GS video card can be found on the nvdia official website on the corresponding linux driver.

Then install it in init 3 mode.

Sh nvdia. sh.

2. Enter the following command

Sax2-r-m 0 = nvidia

When sax2 is used for setting, a dialog box is displayed, and then a display is selected. It is the same as 10.3.

Note that in this case, select the 1440X900 @ 60 Mode Under vesa, and then select 1440X900 for the resolution below.

Click OK. A dialog box is displayed, asking if you want to test it! Do not test, because the test is likely to say that the mode is not supported.

Click Save.

3. Modify xorg. conf

Modify/etc/X11/xorg. conf

Back up data before modification

Cp/etc/X11/xorg. conf

In this section of xorg. conf, there will be something similar:

Section "Monitor"

HorizSync 30-70

VertRefresh 30-70 // similar to this

EndSection

Change the two changes to a greater value than 30-90, but the effect of the two changes is not significant.

Add the following sentence to the EndSection:

Modeline "1440x900" 106.5 1440 1520 1672 1904 900 901 904 932 + hsync + vsync

(You can see the above string using the command gtf 1440 900 60)

Save and exit

Go to the graphic interface and open the graphics card driver interface. At this time, you will find that the resolution option contains 1440x900 more.

Select it and click application!

Note that you do not need to click a button to save it to the x file. Otherwise, black screens are not supported in the mode.

Okay. Everything is okay here!
