Do you boot directly into X or do you have to log in and then type 'startx' ?Originally Posted by backdoc
I have Knoppix installed to the HD. If I log in as root, I get one resolution. If I log in as "knoppix" I get another. What's even more strange, is if I run a program as root while logged in as "knoppix user", it run's as root's resolution. Here's a screenshot.

I looked at fonts. But, they didn't really seem to have anything to do with it. They could, but it's not just the fonts that look bigger. Any ideas?

I boot to the GUI login manager. I think it's KDM. But, I don't know the difference between the different ones.Originally Posted by rickenbacherus

Sorry it took so long to get a reply posted. It's been hectic around here (exams, car trouble and so on).
OK well check out your XF86Config-4 file.
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4
Log in as root and -check it out-log in as Knoppix-check it out. You could copy and paste to an email draft or save it to a text file for example just so you can have the two side by side and not have to constantly switch back and forth. The things I would look for are:
Under the "monitor" section
-HorizSync
-VertRefresh
Under the "device" section
-which driver is it using vga, svga, (mine's a savage for example)
Under the "screens" section (and here's where I would guess the problem to be)
-default depth
-are the modes the same under each SubSection "Disply"
Obviously if it is set to a default depth of 16 then you aren't utilizing your monitor very well- change the default to 24 or 32.
Post your XF86Config if you need help.
