Hi,

I'm currently working on a InternetKiosk using dsl an the booth extension. (Can be found here :Booth )

I want to use a widescreen TFT-Display with 1440x900 pixels.

I edit the .xserverrc-file to :
Code Sample

exec /usr/bin/X11/Xvesa -screen 1440x900x32


But it dos not work.
My display does not support the H/V-sync values X uses.

Is there any way to change this with a parameter in .xserverrc ?      ???

Nope

Your best hope is to install the XFree86.dsl extension and configure a modeline that works with your display.

a quite simple way how to configure x is running knoppix 3.4. boot it and copy the x config file.

tataa... here's your setup.
