If you press F3 when booting the Knoppix CD, the info screen shows how to set resolution. (knoppix screen=1280x800 depth=24). I am sure Knoppix documentation has info on how to change that on an already installed system, too. In Debian it would be dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 but I have no idea if this works in Knoppix. Perhaps asking your question in a Knoppix mailing list would make sense? -- Tapio Lehtonen [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG public key from http://www.iki.fi/Tapio.Lehtonen
