Operating Systems Linux Debian Xorg resolution/display size problem Post 302768495 by DGPickett on Friday 8th of February 2013 04:33:13 PM

I use tightvnc java viewer with free vnc 4, and I can set my desktop window size to fit anything. If I make it too big, I have scrool bars so I can see it all in pieces. Many X desktops have this sort of pan and zoom capability.

Maybe this would help: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RandR
