5.7.2 Setting Resolution and Refresh Rate
To select both a specific resolution and a specific refresh rate,
both the
Monitor
and the
Screen
sections of the
config
file
need to be modified. A list of supported resolutions along with
their corresponding timing numbers is available in the file
/etc/X11/tsi_modeline
. Extract the desired entry from
/etc/X11/tsi_modeline
and insert it into the
Monitor
section as shown.

In addition, the option “
Modes
” in the
Screen
section should be
changed to match the name of the resolution in the
ModeLine
field of the
Monitor
section as shown below. Please ensure
that in the
Monitor
section, the
HorzSync
and
VertRefresh
fields are set to values that are supported by the monitor and
correspond to the desired resolution. In this example the
resolution is set to
VESA1152x900x85
in 8-bit mode.
