Hello,

   We have a desktop with a wide screen attached.  The motherboard
has an integrated Intel video chip (945).
By hand I can run 915resolution command to overwrite one of the video Bios
settings to the maximum resolution of the screen.

$915resolution 3a 1440 900

Restart X and new monitor and system use the new resolution.
(I have made the required changes to xorg.conf file).

I have even created the file /etc/sysconfig/915resolution
and added the line - RESOLUTION="3a 1440 900"

What must I do to have these changes survive a reboot.

thanks,

Doug Benjamin
