question on my screen resolution

[Sherry Zhang]

Lane:

but actually I think it _is_ a problem of freebsd.
when I use Debian GNU/Linux operating system without the ATI fglrx driver
installed,
I use the similar xorg.conf [remove the Modes "1280x800" and Modeline] and
add Virtual 1280 800 and everything works file.
but I try the same method in freebsd, only to find it failed to work.

what's more, i have the libglx.so module. actually mesa, ati, and radeon
driver does not support x1300.
 it also says failed to load glx module when I use Debian GNU/Linux, so only
the 3D won't work.
but it doesn't matter, I just want to change the screen resolution.

but i will take your advice and have a look at the xorg homepage. thx.
