similar to: Screen Resolution not getting set properly

(Hope this is the right place to post this message.) Hi all, I am working on a small movie player which can play full screen movie using Xserver. It works fine in Single Head Mode. But is I set the Xserver in Dual Head Mode. I can't see any thing on both screens. The Code to Init the display is shown as below: > display = XOpenDisplay(NULL); > if (display == NULL) >

Is there any way other than CTL ALT + and CTL ALT - to set and or change the resolution of the X server when I want to. Is there a way to so take me to "1920x1080" mode and then later take me to "1366x768" mode. With xvidtune I see the -next and -prev options but I was hoping for jumping to specific modes. I so realize I can also edit out unwanted modes in the xorg.conf but

Hi all This is my first post and I get the feeling that it will be a very easy one to fix and I will kick myself when I hear it but here it goes. I have installed wine 1.0 on my Ubuntu HH desktop no problems with install etc. However when I try to use wine i.e. configure or use a program the wine interface has a font size that is HUGE and I cannot change these settings i.e. ctrl scroll etc. I

I changed something in 'configure wine' And now my configure wine screen looks like this: http://img186.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotra0.png And now my games look like this: http://img137.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshot1tq0.png How can i fix it?

Check that you have required mode(s) listed in 'xrandr' output. If not, add them to xorg.conf. Alternatively you can use virtual desktop mode.

I have seen different screen-sizes for different types of guests (WinXP and Ubuntu). I''m not sure what is going on here, but WinXP available resolutions are defined tpically 4:3 ratios and the Ubuntu one has tiny 800x600. Unless I run a guest vncserver I can''t see how to specify the default vnc window size.  The reason I dont want to use a guest vncserver is I want localhost

Having spent all day researching xrandr and the use of metamodes, I want to know: Is there a way to monitor the wineserver process so that I can run xrandr immediately upon wineserver's termination? Correct me if I am wrong. I believe that is what I want done. (My problem, like that of many others, is that a full-screen game leaves my display trashed. I've found the same solution,

Hi everybody, I'm using Lubuntu 14.04 on an old desktop PC with a NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS and a screen of 19 inches. The maximal resolution of my screen with Nvidia drivers is 1280x1024. (In particular, I use the Nvidia 331.89 driver) With Nouveau driver, the maximal resolution falls to 1024x768. Is there a solution for increasing the maximum resolution with Nouveau ? Best regards,

Output name 'default' is not the name of an output nouveau can produce (or nvidia for that matter, afaik). This is the vesa driver or... something. Can you supply xorg log + dmesg?

There is no sign of the nouveau kernel module being loaded. Make sure it's loaded, otherwise it won't work. Some distributions blacklist it in modprobe.conf or a related file. I believe the nvidia blob installer might as well. Actually, looks like you've explicitly disabled it -- Oct 28 21:57:22 victorlefevre-MS-7235 kernel: [ 0.000000] Kernel command line:

I have installed StarCraft succesfully, but the screen resolution is only 600x480, how do I change it to 1024x768? I have tried to write: wine --desktop 1024x768 starcraft.exe but that makes the area available 1024x768 inside a 600x480 resolution! Sincerely Jesper

This has me baffled. I run Diablo 2 under Wine, works absolutely flawlessly in every way. I have DGA enabled, and a 800x600 desktop (also tried the Managed and Unmanaged options). Thing is, my X desktop is 1600x1200x16bpp and of course Diablo 2 is only 800x600. Is there any way to have this resolution automagically change to 800x600 (nothing seems to do that here), and back when I exit it? I

How can i adjust the screen resolution in heroes 3 wog ? My current resolution is 800 X 600 and i want to set it to 1024 X 768. Can i do this using "wine regedit" ? I was unable to find the settings in the game.

I'm quite new to Ubuntu and so to Wine too. So I installed Oblivion using Wine, and everything went well. But when I tried to run the game, nothing else happened but the screen resolution changed to 640x480. That happened when I clicked "Launch Game" on the start up menu of the game. Should I change some conffigurations or something?

Exiting Full Screen Lowers OS's Resolution? Hi, I am using current Wine 1.2 on a Ubuntu 10.04 Linux 32bit system. When I play a Windows game using Wine in full screen and then exit that game, my Ubuntu screen resolution is lowered? How can I stop this? Thanks! Jesse

I have been playing an old game, "Knights and Merchants - The Peasants Rebellion" for a long time on wine, keeping track of latest wine beta releases. Yesterday I found it not working. The screen goes black (as usual, as there is some resolution changing done and the game will come up full screen), but then it just goes back to the initial screen; There is hardly any output: Code:
