Hi members, first post and very green in linux.
I am trying to make a small terminal services machine and am Using a Shuttle XS35. I have a tried a few monitors and it only seems to work with monster display 32" and above. When I boot into a normal 19" monitor it always missed the top half of the taskbar so you cant get to anything. I have tried booting off the big monitor and adjusting the resolution but the moment I plug into the small one it always displays incorrectly. Is there anyway I can adjust the resolution from the command line? Or perhaps a kind member can provide a config file to edit or add. Many thanks in advance. handy. |

It sounds like the small monitor isn't picking up the video signal correctly. Do you have size/position adjustments on the small monitor that you can use to bring the video on-screen? |

Hi handy & welcome
 in order to let community help you, we need more information about your setup and what you want to achieve. e.g. - Shuttle XS35 is some kind of ergonomic Mini PC right? - if it is so, we need more information about your HW => post here output of: lspci lsusb - next, do you run X server (aka do you boot to GUI - gnome or KDE desktop) or do you only boot without any GUI, meaning you have only CLI (command line) after boot? - what terminal services you talk about? i mean i know there 'terminal services' service in Windows, but i dont know about anything like that in Linux ...(might be i miss something..) - also, what is spec of you LCD (or CRT?) screens? supported resolutions? max resolution? post and i'm sure someone will have some handy advice ... cheers, -------------------- |
