How to Change The Puppy Linux Screen Size?




Connor Mer


I don't mean it make fullscreen or something. At the set-up screen I picked the wrong xxxx*xxxx pixels formatting, and I don't know how to change it.


Answer
Try:
Menu
...Setup
......Xorg Video wizard

Or Xvesa Video Wizard if you are using Xvesa - but don't worry if you don't know whether you are using Xorg or Xvesa, just try either and it will tell you if that is the wrong one.
.... but you are probably using Xorg unless it's a very old computer, so you will most likely see the 'Resolution changer' option in the Xorg Video Wizard and that should do what you want.
(or you can run the full wizard to set up all the Xorg or Xvesa settings)
I hope that makes sense! Good luck.
If you have problems, ask on the Puppy Linux forums and someone will help you.

Answer
As good as Ubuntu 7.04 is its starting to get a bit long in the tooth now, besides support sadly ends at the end of October. I recommend you upgrade to Ubuntu 7.10 http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.10/ (My prefence) with which you can carry out a rolling upgrade via the Update Manager without the need for a reinstallation http://www.ubuntugeek.com/upgrade-ubuntu-704-feisty-fawn-to-ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbon.html or you could upgrade to Ubuntu 8.04.1 http://releases.ubuntu.com/hardy/ however this would require a fresh installation. Either option I am almost certain would be a solution to the problem.
