HOWTO: change resolution/refresh rate in Xorg
Hi,
Very nice guide. I just want to make a small suggestion. In the end, instead of restarting gdm, one should first test if the configuration is right. As most newbies wouldn't know what to do if their X is lost, it's better to do
Code:
sudo xinit -- :2
where one can see the result on a new X (ctrl+alt+F9) without losing the first. If something goes wrong, one can easily use the backup configuration under their surviving X (ctrl+alt+F7).
