Create a file in ~/.screenlayout with the proper resolution you want. Then add it to autostart. Here is an example, which is the way mine worked to use two monitors: Added to autostart: ~/.screenlayout/ext-acer-dual-monitor.sh The ext-acer-dual-monitor.sh contains: #!/bin/sh xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1600x900 --pos 0x0 --rotate normal --output VGA1 --mode 1440x900 --pos 1904x0 --rotate normal -- Charlie Kravetz Linux Registered User Number 425914 [http://linuxcounter.net/user/425914.html] Never let anyone steal your DREAM.
