making network and screen resolution persistent

Hi,

I'm a newbie of Slitaz, and very amazed by the speed that Slitaz gives to my old PCs, thanks for a great product.

got some questions, I installed the Slitaz 4 into a hard drive, it works, just  don't know how to do following:

1) every time when boot up, network is not connected as it always default to wlan which I don't have, I need to click the icon, switch to eth0, configure the static ip used in the LAN, then it works, is there a way to make this change persistent?

2) screen resolution, I change the setting, then click 'Apply', or 'Save', but after rebooting, I have to do this again, how to avoid this?

Thanks,

Angelo

Re: making network and screen resolution persistent

This might help solve 'setting the screen resolution'.

I had a similar problem making a LiveCD (System Tools > Create a LiveCD > Write iso).

The monitor resolution always went back to a default 1280x... , not 1024x.... that I wanted.

I 'forced the setting' 1024x768 by editing the file

/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/70-Screen.conf

adding: Modes "1024x768" in 2 places.

SubSection "Display"

        Viewport   0 0

        Depth     16

        Modes "1024x768"

    EndSubSection

    SubSection "Display"

        Viewport   0 0

        Depth     24

        Modes "1024x768"

    EndSubSection

The changes remained thereafter.
