After talking with another team member I promised to write up how to modify X.org settings by generating a configuration file from the auto-detected base so that settings can be changed manually. I have used this at several partimus.org sites for getting old monitors to do more than the ancient resolution default that comes up, much less than 1024x768.
>From http://x.org I click FAQ then Configuration Help and find: http://www.x.org/wiki/ConfigurationHelp In practice I use a virtual console (ctrl-alt-F2), login as a user then to get root run: sudo su - Then run: /etc/init.d/gdm stop Then run: X --configure Then run: cp xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf I look forward to a fruitful discussion with those I have talked to recently and others about customizations.
