I have Fedora 7 here and 8 on two other machines and I didn't even know
about the zoom. I wish I had. But it doesn't work here either. Is
there something that has to be set to enable it? Is it just called
desktop zoom or how should I google it? Glaucoma here makes reading web
pages and finding Icons difficult sometimes, along with some
applications I need to run.
Les, I'm still running FC7 and I just use left-ctrl + left-alt + numpad
plus-key OR numpad-minus-key to change resolutions, up or down. You do
have to have those resolutions defined in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Videocard0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
Option "TwinView" "0"
Option "metamodes" "1280x1024 +0+0; 1280x960 +0+0;
1280x800+0+0; 1280x720 +0+0;
1152x864 +0+0; 1152x768 +0+0; 1024x768 +0+0; 800x600 +0+0; 640x480 +0+0"
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1024x768"
"800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection
Not sure what flat-panels do though. I'm still running a Large boss-hawg
multisync, which handles resolution changes on the fly like a charm. Ric
