Dan, Thanks a lot. I fixed it... after 3 days of hitting my head on the wall..... although the LCD is an open (no frame) industrial one, it had a tiny "auto" adjustment button on the back that fixes things at 800x600 and that is non-volatile... <br>
Thanks for all the info... I learned a lot looking for solutions... although it wasn't the right time! :)<br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2008/4/25 Schumi Imor <<a href="mailto:schumiimor@gmail.com">schumiimor@gmail.com</a>>:<br>

It seem that the "stable" etch Debian distribution has Randr v1.1. So I upgraded to the Lenny (testing) distro of Debian with Randr v1.2. But still, none of those suggestions work... There has to be something out there to shift my X. The screen looks great in 1024x768. But need shifting in 800x600 anf 640x480.<br>
<br>Any other ideas,,,...<div><div></div><div class="Wj3C7c"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Apr 24, 2008 at 1:43 AM, Dan Phung <<a href="mailto:phung@cs.columbia.edu" target="_blank">phung@cs.columbia.edu</a>> wrote:<br>

<div>hmm, well, some other things to try, from 'man xorg.conf' are:</div><div><br></div><div>Display Section</div><div><br> ViewPort x0 y0 This optional entry sets the upper left corner of the initial display. This is only relevant when the virtual screen resolu$B!>(B tion is different from the resolution of the initial video mode.

<br></div><div>Monitor Section</div><div><br></div><div> Option "Position" "x y" This optional entry specifies the position of the monitor within the X screen. (RandR 1.2-supporting drivers only)<br>

<br>When I tried xrandr -s 640x480, the system change resolution to VGA. When I redid xrandr 800x600, I was back in SVGA. But adding some values +50+50 to either efforts, does not change anything... not even a screen reset/flicker, as if it ignored the command altogether.<br>
<br>Any ideas?<br>Thanks<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Apr 24, 2008 at 12:38 AM, Dan B.

First you should try messing with how much you need to shift using xrandr...if that's available on the device. do something like:<br> <br> xrandr -s 800x600+50+50<br> <br> if you don't have xrandr, then try adding the "+50+50" to your xorg.conf, and messing with the settings till you align your screen. <br>

I was able to install and run debian with xserver-xorg-core and xorg packages on it.<br>
But when I run X, the screen/window is shifted by 1 inch to the left. The same when I run 640x480. But when I run at higher resolutions, although I can see the whole screen and will have to move the mouse to see all corners, the window edge look fine.<br>
What setting in the xorg.conf or somewhere else can I change to move the windows/screen right by 1 inch? Thanks in advance.<br> <br> xorg.conf file:<br> <br> Section "ServerLayout"<br> Identifier "X.org Configured"<br>
