hello everybody!
I know there are lots of issues with KDE reseting the resolution of the screen when rebooting. I tried LOTS of solutions and NONE solved my problem.
Some say to edit your xorg.config (or something like that) but since Karimc, we do not have that file.
I can name all the solutions available in forums, official KDE help files, but I won't.
After thinking and thining, something enlightened me.
I read that with the command xrandr you can change your resolution, but it will reset after reboot.
But what I did is the simpliest.
Just add that command to the startup programs and services.
For example, my screen is 1280x1024 with a 60hz rate. So the command I added is:
xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 1280x1024 --rate 60
Where VGA1 is my screen (you can see how is it named by running KRandRTray), obviously 1280x1024 is the resolution and 60 is the rate.
Add it by clicking Kmenu->System Preferences-> AdvcancedTab -> autoboot-> add application (names may vary, 'cause my KDE is in spanish, but I try to make it as close as possible).
save it and you're done. Everytime your KDE starts, it will automatically set the screen resolution and rate you entered.
I hope this info helps everyone that is lloking for an answer for this issue, I visited many many forum threads and I am very lazy to register in all those forums and answer every thread.
Greetings!
