If you want to change resolutions, you will have to modify your 18fc5a983dSmrg config file. Comment out all but the mode you wish to use. 19fc5a983dSmrg 20fc5a983dSmrg o The generic VGA16 server will not work with the NV1. For this reason 21fc5a983dSmrg XF86Setup cannot be used to configure the server. Use xf86config 22fc5a983dSmrg instead.
