Re: screen resolution too small, can not install xubuntu daper

The other alternative is to use the *alternate* install ISO. It's a
text-based installer, and should bypass the problem that you're having.

Dear All,

I try to install xubuntu dapper on my old computer, celeron 333, ram
128, and s3trio 3d vga card. From live cd i just can get resolution at
640x480. The desktop is too big so i can not see dialog box completly
when i try to install it to my hdd so it's hard to me to install it to
my hdd. I have try several option to make resolution bigger when start
ubuntu live cd but still not work.. I try to change resolution. But it
can not change. That is the only resolution avalable.

Please help me to overcome that situation so that i can install
xubuntu from live cd. Thanks in advance


I had the same problem with with Ubuntu. There was no really good
solution, but you can right-click on the window in the panel and MOVE
the window where you want it. I am not absolutely sure if Xubuntu is
able to do that, too, but I think so (don't really know the xubuntu
panel...).
Greetings, hop that helps
