How i change Xorg resolution to 600x600

<< < (3/7) > >>

malikawan:
Ok if i create same config file in tc folder and after startup i copy this file to /etc/X11 with script place at .X.D folder. Is it work or not because i am using persistent home.

nitram:
No that won't work, /home/tc/.X.d is for starting graphic programs after Xorg loads, it's too late in the boot process.

Please try the detailed instructions provided.

nitram:
Always trying to learn. If you're still there, have you tried xrandr? If it works, less hassle than an xorg.conf file. Running this command manually in a terminal will change to 800x600 with a refresh rate of 75:

--- Code: ---tc@box:~$ xrandr -s 800x600 -r 75

--- End code ---

If it works then your hardware supports the mode. If Tiny Core doesn't have  xrandr  by default then install it onboot. Then create a non-executable plain text file in /home/tc/.X.d named 10_resolution and enter this into the file:
xrandr -s 800x600 -r 75

Reboot and test, your screen may flicker or change resolution during boot.

I try the same command xrandr -s 800x600 -r 75 but it says 75 is not available in this resolution if i increase resolution i.e 800x600 than it change to 75. But 800x600 is not available

nitram:
Simply running  xrandr  will give you default available resolutions. If your desired resolution/refresh rate are not available then the xrandr command in /home/tc/.X.d won't be very useful. Maybe you need to be flexible with your resolution and/or refresh rate.

On my system an xorg.conf file is able to provide monitor resolutions not present in xrandr output, maybe it depends on the hardware. So if xrandr does not work then try using an xorg.conf file using instructions provided above. Good luck.
