Hi all.
Hmm, is too early to ask a question about rawhide FC7 ?
Installation was *very* nice from within VMware 5.5, and i do appreciate
many changes in the look.
I have just one problem atm : I cant find "display menu" which is in
the path System/admin/display within FC6.
I have only 800 and 640 for resolution..
Larry
One more time *excuse-me* if it is too early ! and then forget it ;)

Are you looking for how you change your resolution or you only see 800x640
in your choices?

Justin : thx
I only see 800 and 640. I worked around by editing xorg.conf as root and
adding 1024x768 for resolution choises. Then using the path you
mentioned, i could set resolution to 1024.
But so far, on fc one could see a "display" menu needing root passwd.
*This is gone away...*

I think he is talking about Menu/System/Administration/display, in which
case the whole Administration menu is gone, as well as preferences
(which is in Control panel currently).

Yes i am talkin about this menu. It is wierd that there is no more
possibility to switch resolution values when there are not good. Might
it be set automaticaly and no more by hand ?

system-config-display was unintentionally omitted from FC7. No, I don't
know why.
It would be nice if it came back, I suppose.

No, system-config-display is still in Fedora 7. It didn't make it onto the
desktop spin.

I thought we were getting rid of s-c-d?

No, system-config-display is *no more* in FC7-test1 fresh download &
install.
Dunno why, but rawhide version got it but very last version doesnt ?

Test1 is the Desktop spin, which is a subset of the packages available in
rawihde+extras development.

I hope that nobody seriously considers such idea. That would
be an unmitigated disaster.
Although you can probably hope that default modes will be more or
less ok, even if in various situations I have seen a display shifted
far to one side, or scrunched, or otherwise badly distorted beyond
what you can hope to correct with monitor controls (and you do not
want to fiddle with these all the time in case you boot also
something else) then there is no way you can rely on monitor EDID
data. You may not get any or, even worse, something bad. Leaving
all these users with "Generic 800x600 VGA" does not even start to
sound funny. "Buy a better monitor" in general is not that good
answer.
