Quick question about gnome default resolution

[bgradid]

I've almost got my gentoo setup exactly as I want it, except one problem with gnome that is annoying.
it thinks 1280x1024 is the default resolution when i'd much prefer 1600x1200 to be.
gdm starts in 1600x1200, correctly, my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file has '1600x1200' as the first resolution for all bit depths, and, when i go to change the gnome settings with 'desktop resolution' in the applications launcher, i have 'make default for this computer (desktop) only' checked when i switch it to 1600x1200.

this is probably a quick thing to fix
cheers in advance

Try this: Open the Configuration Editor (in system tools in the application menu), and in the /desktop/gnome/screen area try setting the resolutions by hand. On my system I had a default entry, as well as one with my hostname. I had to set both to get my default desktop resolution to be correct.

Hope this helps!

You could always change your Xorg file to change the Default system resolution.

Make sure your bit depth is supported by the xorg driver, I had a similar problem that was fixed by lowering the depth on it.
