Resoloution problems help!!!

Post by ChronicKind »

Ok I installed gentoox home 4.0 and couldn't see anything because everything was too small, so I tried to change the resoloution and now when I login the screen is all jumbled and I can't change it back because I can't see what I'm doing. I tried editing the linuxboot file but it didnt work. Is there any way I can change this over the Samba server? Or how do I fix this?

dont know how exactly you changed the resolution, but you got to use xbvset to change resolution.

The resolution only takes effect after gentoox starts, do you see the first boot screen on gentoox where you have Fatx,dvd,configuration options. If you do go into configuration and fix your screen resolution.

if not... search about ssh and use that.
