strange thing
when I'm connected and on a terminal I can enter the following
xrandr -s 1280x1024
or
xrandr -s 1600x1200
or
xrandr -s 1920x1200
and the display changes to this resolution on the fly
how can I bring the system to do this before I connect via vncviewer from my other
box?
A couple of things....
The 1600x1200 60.00 + in your xrandr output indicates what the Xserver, in this
case Xvnc, is offering as the optimal resolution and 1024x768 60.00* (with the
*) is what you've connected at. But I think you already knew that. I just like
typing.
What I believe is that the vncviewer is doing is requesting 1024x768 and that is what
you'll get. Now, the "interesting" or bad thing is that once you connect at
a lower
resolution than what you want Xvnc will stick with it no matter what you do from the
viewer side.
So.... Try disconnecting, restart the server, and then use "vncviewer -geometry
1600x1200 hostname:1" to connect.
In other words, once you connect with a given resolution you're stuck to it on
subsequent connections. :-(
