Can I use the nouveau driver in xorg.conf to Lock in the resolution ?.
I have a computer that defaults to 1920x1080 and that resolution is to
high, and I have a older friend that will be using this computer and I
want to Lock into
1280x1024x75 .
I don't want to use the nvidia drivers they are to unstable and nouveau
drivers
are doing a good job on this computer.
Try adding something like the following to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, where
the "Identifier" is what you get from `xrandr -q`.
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "DVI-I-1"
Option "PreferredMode" "1280x1024"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "nouveau"
EndSection
-A
Thanks for the initial Info.
After I got it working I found this a Fedoraproject.
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_xorg.conf
This did the job:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "VGA-1"
Modeline "1280x1024_75.00" 108.88 1280 1360 1496 1712 1024
1025 1028 1060 -HSync +Vsync
Option "PreferredMode" "1280x1024_75.00"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "nouveau"
Option ""
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Primary Screen"
Device ""

SubSection "Display"
