| 10:09.18 | mikexcr | try sudo X --configure && cp ~/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf |
| 10:09.25 | susj | hi, i just installed debian on an old g4 of mine. im having problems adjusting screen resolution, dpkg-reconfigure does not ask me about resolution settings :-( |
| 10:09.34 | mikexcr | susj: ^ |
| 10:09.53 | susj | :-) |
| 10:10.38 | mikexcr | X --configure set max resolution and if you want, could you set resolution System -> Preferences -> Resolution |

| 10:25.53 | susj | mikexcr: hmmm... I'm still quite new to linux, can you help me a bit more detailed on what to do? |
| 10:26.22 | susj | im used to have dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ask me about resolution |
| 10:26.45 | mikexcr | ask you? |
| 10:26.48 | mikexcr | or not? |
| 10:27.01 | susj | also, now i have a window manager installed which autoloads on bootup. how do i get out of that so i shutdown X and can run X -configure? |
| 10:27.10 | susj | ask not |
| 10:27.20 | susj | sorry confusing you |
| 10:27.30 | susj | normally it asks me, but not on this machine |
| 10:27.36 | mikexcr | sudo X -configure && cp ~/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf and ctrl+alt+backspace :) |
| 10:27.48 | mikexcr | susj: it's normal in debian 5 ;) |
| 10:27.56 | susj | mikexcr: ok, a new thing |
| 10:28.07 | susj | maybe the other machines where debian 4 |

| 10:35.35 | mikexcr | and? |
| 10:35.36 | susj | mikexcr: mmm... not really work, on ctrl-alt-backspace the window manager (gdm?) keeps respawning in a loop |
| 10:35.50 | mikexcr | susj: so init 6 / rebot |
| 10:35.54 | mikexcr | reboot * |

| 10:40.54 | mikexcr | and? |
| 10:40.55 | mikexcr | :D |
| 10:42.04 | susj | another little problem first: when switching between "screens" using ctrl-alt fx, when i go back to the one running X all i get is the login prompt? |
| 10:42.53 | susj | im running irssi on f2, so i can report back to you what's going wrong... |
| 10:45.00 | susj | so what happened was i tried to issue X -configure but that failed cause X was still running. So i did ctrl-alt-backspace to stop X but then the window manager kept respawning, eventually i got to kill it, but still, I'm confused right now what's going one with all these Xs ;-) |
| 10:46.30 | susj | mikexcr: still there? |
| 10:49.06 | mikexcr | susj: sorry i must go :< |
| 10:49.08 | mikexcr | susj: exam... |
| 10:49.44 | susj | ok. thanks. good luck! |
| 10:49.53 | mikexcr | susj: google -> X11 xorg.conf resolution section | and add section of resolution to your default setiing (xorg.conf) |
| 10:51.06 | mikexcr | if you got powerbook g4 with ati, could I take my config |

| 10:53.19 | pahartik | susj: "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" |
