Screen resolution is to high with live USB.

Hi

This is my first post. I got a problem with the live usb from SliTaz.

After a successful boot from the live USB, my screen resolution is to high for my screen to display it... is there a way to change this?

Thanks.

Hi, lxrandr on terminal for select screen resolution

or add "Xft.dpi: 120" at end of .Xdefaults (120 or less if characters is too big)

and logout xsession and new login to apply the dpi value.

echo "Xft.dpi: 120" >> .Xdefaults

Hi

You mean the terminal from the bootloader?

Before launching the live distro?

No, open terminal after boot and login... if you end the live boot with screen desktop.

If you end the boot with a blank/black screen the problem is other.

That's the problem... after boot i get direct "resolution is not supported by this screen"...

And i have a black screen without any text or graphics...

I did this already, without success.

To prevent launch of Xorg add at boot "screen=text"

login in text mode and with eth connection active try tazx command
