Radeon9600 resolution on startup

English Hardware
#1

Hi!

My Radeon 9600 works fine so far but when I reboot or restart the xserver my display starts with the highest possible resolution (1920x1280). (SUSE 11).

my xorg.conf:

If you’re wanting to adjust the resolution, you can go into yast > hardware > graphics card and monitor and you should be able to select a different resolution. If you’re using kde 4, you can also change the resolution in systemsettings > display.
