Hi richard and jerry
thanx for ur suggestions but i guess my problem remains the same ... My
xserver still starts with screen resolution of 640 x 480 ... Before the
improper shutdown it was working fine in 1024 x 768 resolution , but now no
matter what resolution i provide, it starts up with 640 x 480 resolution
which makes the screen appear so big .. Is there anything else that i can do


Thnx & Regds

P.S. I have done "X -configure" and has detected the following settings :
