Save KDE resolution
I am using porteus for a while and i am now using with changes=/dev/mydisks, most changes are being saved, but kde resolution is never saved.
I have an EEEPC 900 plugged to a HDTV 27'' LED DISPLAY. Everytime i start porteus i get a 800x600 clone in both monitors, so i enter in kde control panel and disable the EEEPC monitor , and set the LED DISPLAY to 1920x1080, greaT ! but this resolution is never saved.
Any ideas ?

Re: Save KDE resolution
After you set the new resolution, make a module with the change:
#cd /mnt/live/memory
#dir2xzm changes myresolution.xzm
Move myresolution.xzm to modules; the next start will be correct.

Porteus is proud of the FASTEST KDE ever made.....(take akonadi, nepomuk and soprano out and you will have a decent OS).

Re: Save KDE resolution
Welcome!
Try removing 'xconf;' from your boot commands, so the autoexec portion reads 'autoexec=telinit~4'. Your changes are getting undone by xconf, which doesn't seem to be autoconfiguring your resolution properly.

Please take a look at our online documentation, here. Suggestions are welcome!

Even without rebooting , if i just logout and login again the resolution is not saved. Always starts in both monitors at 800x600

@colchaodemola
launch 'krandrtray' utility (if you have kde module activated) and set the resolution separately for laptop and TV.
they should persist between reboots - didn't check myself so can be wrong.

Re: Save KDE resolution

Re: Save KDE resolution
My suggestion would be to setup your resolution in your xorg.cong file, and then edit the file /etc/X11/gui.conf so that it has the line:
SKIP_XCONF=yes
This will ensure that xconf leaves your xorg file alone. Are you using one of the ATI or NVIDIA modules?
