There's very little out there on this subject for Fedora, and you're little blog post explains everything clear as day. Really appreciate the time you've taken to post this little gem.

It looks like all of the exact same commands should work, and you will simply need to place the three commands at the bottom of the /etc/kde/kdm/Xsetup file.<br /><br />Hope that helps!<br />-StuartStuarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05290963945327316784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938940963299249305.post-62826239856681468092011-09-05T07:53:44.594-04:002011-09-05T07:53:44.594-04:00do you know how to do this in KDE? there is no &qu...do you know how to do this in KDE? there is no "/etc/gdm/" folder on my Spin kde fedora15.

You do need to make sure that you are using a modeline that is specific to your display's capabilities. There are various places to look, for example the AVS Forum (http://www.avsforum.com/) or the MythTV Modeline Database (http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Modeline_Database). You could also try to generate one with The XFree86 Modeline Generator (http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl). And before adding anything into /etc/gdm/Init/Default, you should test out your modeline at the command-line with xrandr to make sure it works as expected.<br /><br />-StuartStuarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05290963945327316784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938940963299249305.post-26089350124490600302011-06-18T09:26:55.486-04:002011-06-18T09:26:55.486-04:00Stuart,

Is there anything else that you did apart from this to make it work?<br /><br />-Srinikandulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04999586504599626110noreply@blogger.com
