Sol 11 express X86:Dual monitor config,max resolution
Hello!
I have some X86 desktop computer with G45 embedded dual-head video.
Two monitors can be configured, but with "small" problem: the summ of dimensions in any direction (vert or horis) can't exceed 1680 pix- max sizeof virtual screen area.
Attempts to edit "videoram" parameter in xorg.conf failed.
Any minds?

My machine (Sun Blade 100) has just had it's OS reinstalled (solaris 8). For some reason the monitor resolution has changed (decreaded so that I have less monitor real esate).
Does anybody know the command to change monitor resolution in Solaris?
Cheers

xvidtune
xvidtune(1) General Commands Manual xvidtune(1)
NAME
xvidtune - video mode tuner for Xorg
SYNOPSIS
xvidtune [ -show | -prev | -next | -unlock ] [ -toolkitoption ... ]
DESCRIPTION
Xvidtune is a client interface to the X server video mode extension (XFree86-VidModeExtension).
When given one of the non-toolkit options, xvidtune provides a command line interface to either print or switch the video mode.
Without any options (or with only toolkit options) it presents the user with various buttons and sliders that can be used to interactively
adjust existing video modes. It will also print the settings in a format suitable for inclusion in an xorg.conf file.
Normally the Xorg X servers only allow changes to be made with the XFree86-VidModeExtension from clients connected via a local connection
type.
Note: The original mode settings can be restored by pressing the `R' key, and this can be used to restore a stable screen in situations
where the screen becomes unreadable.
The available buttons are:
Left
Right
Up
Down
Adjust the video mode so that the display will be moved in the appropriate direction.
Wider
Narrower
Shorter
Taller
Adjust the video mode so that the display size is altered appropriately.
Quit Exit the program.
Apply Adjust the current video mode to match the selected settings.
Auto Cause the Up/Down/Right/Left, Wider/Narrower/Shorter/Taller, Restore, and the special S3 buttons to be applied immediately. This
button can be toggled.
Test Temporarily switch to the selected settings.
Restore Return the settings to their original values.
Fetch Query the server for its current settings.
Show Print the currently selected settings to stdout in xorg.conf "Modeline" format. The primary selection is similarly set.
Next Switch the Xserver to the next video mode.
Prev Switch the Xserver to the previous video mode.
For some S3-based cards (964 and 968) the following are also available:
InvertVCLK
Change the VCLK invert/non-invert state.
EarlySC Change the Early SC state. This affects screen wrapping.
BlankDelay1
BlankDelay2
Set the blank delay values. This affects screen wrapping. Acceptable values are in the range 0-7. The values may be incre-
mented or decremented with the `+' and `-' buttons, or by pressing the `+' or `-' keys in the text field.
For S3-864/868 based cards InvertVCLK and BlankDelay1 may be useful. For S3 Trio32/Trio64 cards only InvertVCLK is available. At the
moment there are no default settings available for these chips in the video mode extension and thus this feature is disabled in xvidtune.
It can be enabled by setting any of the optional S3 commands in the screen section of xorg.conf, e.g. using
blank_delay "*" 0
OPTIONS
xvidtune accepts the standard X Toolkit command line options as well as the following:
-show Print the current settings to stdout in xorg.conf "Modeline" format and exit.
-prev Switch the Xserver to the previous video mode.
-next Switch the Xserver to the next video mode.
-unlock Normally, xvidtune will disable the switching of video modes via hot-keys while it is running. If for some reason the program
did not exit cleanly and they are still disabled, the program can be re-run with this option to re-enable the mode switching key
combinations.

BUGS
X Error handling, i.e. when the server does not allow xvidtune clients to write new modes, could be better.
