Hi!

I have just obtained a Dell M991 19" monitor.

I connected it with my Debian Linux (woody) system -- and it is running
well -- but at 1024x768 resolution.

The Dell M991 manual -- whchi I located on line -- indicates that this
monitor has a preset setting, to run at 1600X1200 resolution -- which
would be MUCH better.

But, I can't find anywhere, how to make this adjustment.  (There's nothing
on the back of the monitor that would allow that; and the menu-driven
front controls don't seem to have anything, either.)

As usual, I'm running XFree (the standard for Debian woody); perhaps this
should be set in software?

Your response greatly appreciated.

:)

Yours,

-- Saul
