what program will I use if I want to auto detect my monitor, let's say I installed linux in a crt monitor then later upgrade to lcd, in fedora there is a generic lcd driver but in other distribution I wasn't able to find one, how do you do this in other linux distribution? what program can auto detect monitor then automatically write to X window config?

dili ba ni ma-detect sa Ubuntu? ga-Ubuntu man ko. i had crt then switched to LCD. iya ra man na detect.

hmmm...

1. Having total control of your OS.
2. Speed and power.
3. Being unmarried to Microsoft.
4. Cheap.
5. No more system crashes (if properly configured)
6. No more virus concerns.
7. Security.
8. Development / Programming

ang nakabati?

1. Walay Assasin's Creed.
2. Walay Need for Speed.
3. Walay Fritz and Chessmaster

make sure your video card is detected and loaded ..

lspci ... lsmod .. check for nvidia/ati/etc are loaded.

If you're using Ubuntu, try xresprobe, it outputs xorg.conf configuration where you can put in /etc/X11

Thanks for the ubuntu tip, I figured how to do this in openSUSE by executing sax2 -r as root, I upgraded my monitor from a 15" to 17" and it worked perfectly fine in openSUSE 11.1 but resolution is not optimized in version 10.2 in my other server.
