[Fedora-xen] How to change resolution above 1024x768 in guess OS?

[Emre Erenoglu]

Hi Mark,

I don't think you can get a higher resolution with the virtual graphics
adapter. My suggestions:

- Use a vnc based server inside the DomU
- Use Nomachine NX or FreeNX (suggested if you're away from the machine)
- Use XDMCP (suggested if you're on the same machine)

Good luck!

Emre
