my question was:

> how do i change the screen resolution for a S3 Trio64 graphics card
> (with 2MB) in an Alphastation 255/233 from the default 1024 to 1280?
> can i change an X startup parameter, or are there jumpers on this
> card that i need to change? sizer -gr reports 1024x768.

Aideen McConville <aideen_at_persimmon.co.uk>

for responding. the correct answer is to modify Xservers to

:0 local /usr/bin/X11/X -screen 1280 -vsync 72

there are no jumpers on this card.
