SUBJECT: TV Resolution, Terminals, Desktops and WM'sHi,
I have PS2 Linux running at present on a TV; I checked in another thread and saw that the resolution cannot exceed 800x600, but it looks as if it's lower than that, currently. Is there a way of altering that at all?
Secondly, due to the resolution, I can't seem to fit a terminal completely on the screen. I know there's a way to configure their default size (I prefer to use Eterm, if it makes a difference), but it's been so long since I used Linux that I can't remember.
Next, from what I recall of X, it's possible to switch between 4(?) different desktops, but I'll be damned if I can remember the command. Meta-something? I forget.
Finally, it seems that when I use 'startx', it always comes up using the default WM; this is something I could never remember how to do, but as I have KDE and Gnome installed, I was wondering how to set one of those as the default WM for X.
Thanks for any help, and sorry if these questions are already answered elsewhere -- I searched a bit, but didn't look at everything. |
