[SOLVED] Screen Resolution 1024x600
solleon:
Hey guys,
My steps to work with 1024 x 600:
* Install xorg from tce repo
* Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf like below. Note: keyboard is pt, in my case, and gpu "geode", so modify xorg for your system.
* Add new line with "etc/X11/xorg.conf" to file "/opt/filetool.lst"
* Kill X, pressing with ctrl + alt + backspace or using logout "Exit to prompt"
* Type "startx" and hit enter
* Success! If fail, kill X again e edit xorg.conf until fine!
* So modify the first line of "/home/tc/.xsession" to "/usr/local/bin/Xorg -nolisten tcp &"
* Now you can reboot and system auto load 1024 x 600
My xorg.conf from ubunt community

OK, so... let's put a finishing point here:
Wich is more faster and less power and cpu consuption: Xvesa or Xorg (with appropriate drivers) on a netbook with Intel 945GME ?
I usually use my netbook to browse the web, programming for the web, watch some videos and image editing with gimp and inkscape. The hardware is:
video intel 945GME
2GB RAM
250GB HD (not SSD)
All intel chipsets and RTL8101E/RTL8102E for wireless card.
What will be better (like i said in the beginning) Xvesa or Xorg? (or Xfbdev?)
Thanks!
Juanito:
I use tc on a laptop with Intel 945 graphics and cannot see the difference between Xvesa and Xorg-7.5 in normal use, so I use Xvesa most of the time.

Hey, I found a better way than loading 915resolution! I use thinkpad e420 which has a resolution of 1366*768 but Xvesa couldn't display that way,and 915resolution said it couldn't determine my chipset type. So I installed xf86-video-all.tcz, graphics-3.0.3-tinycore.tcz and Xorg-7.6-3d.tcz. Note that you have to download only them instead of Onboot because system may halt during loading. Then modify your onboot.lst, put xf86-video-all.tcz on top and put the others after all the default items. Then it works!
