I'm not even sure if this is the hardwares problem, but...
I've tried changing the resolution the normal way through Kcontrol panel but it doesn't seem to work as the max resolution is 800 X 600.
However, I've learned how to get around this. In terminal I ran this command:
and I reconfigured the script to include all the resolutions up to the max that my monitor can support 1280 by 1024. Now I hit CTRL+ALT+Backspace to relogin and the resolution changed as expected but my mouse pointer disappears. I know it's still there and it's still detected as I can still use it but I can't see the actual pointer. Can anyone help me correct this problem?
If you are wondering my graphics card is a Nvidia Geforce 6100 LE.
