My quastion was:
----------------
How to change the screen resolution with PowerStorm3D30 under DU4.0D ...

I got two quick responses from:
Paul Watson <phwatso_at_cooper-energy-services.com>
Landkammer_Jiøí <LandkammerJ_at_radiomobil.cz>

Thanks to both!

Paul suggested:
===============
... if you edit the file /var/X11/xdm/Xservers for the XDM window manager or
/usr/dt/config/Xservers for the CDE window manager and add -screen0 1280
to the end of the last line in the file. See also man Xdec.

... but at least the 1st choice didn't work.
I didn't edit /usr/dt/config/Xservers as stated in his header comments ...


Jiri suggested:
===============
 I think that the change must be made no software but hardware.
 On the video card is switch (cyclic or flip-flop) and it must
be switched: ...

I took swich D: 1280x1024 at 75Hz refresh rate
(one has to refer to the hardware documentation on PBXGB-AA!!)

... and this works fine!!!

Thanks once more again,
Valentin


P.S. Previous to that I had installed the 100dpi fonts.
     One needs them at this(and bigger) resolution!!!
