This article mainly introduces what is the management tool of Fedora display settings, which is very detailed and has a certain reference value. Friends who are interested must finish reading it!

Management tools for Fedora display settings

In Fedora, the configuration tool for monitors and display cards is system-config-display, which exists in the software package system-config-display. If you do not have this command or cannot find this tool on the menu, you can install it yourself.

[beinan@localhost] # rpm-Q system-config-display

System-config-display-1.0.29-1

If not, you can install the software through the package management tool system-config-packages, or find the package installation from the CD-ROM image

[beinan@localhost ~] # rpm-ivh system-config-display*

Call method

[beinan@localhost ~] # system-config-display

Or

[beinan@localhost ~] # / usr/bin/system-config-display

This tool is relatively simple, and we can configure it according to the configuration of our machine. It is worth noting that if you use LCD, be sure to choose LCD.

Second, display card driver

The driver of the display card can provide stronger functions, such as supporting 3D function, etc.; in addition, the resolution of the screen is related to whether the display card has a driver; under the default installation of the system, the driver of the display card does not support 3D; if we want the system to support 3D, we must have a graphics card driver.

Unfortunately, not all display cards have official Unix-like drivers. At present, it seems that the official support of NVidia display cards is strong; some ATI display cards can get official support. According to the official documentation of AIT, the display card version must be higher than 8500 before the official driver is available.

If you are using Fedora Core 4.0, you should upgrade your display card driver online. Please refer to "apt+synaptic installs Nvida chip display card and Ati card display driver for Fedora core 4.0"

We can use the official graphics adjustment tool for the display card to adjust the display properties; it is very simple, it is completed with a mouse click, similar to Windows; after installing the ATI and NVIDIA drivers, there are graphical configuration tools on the menu to find out for yourself.

If you use Intel 855 integrated display card, you can refer to "Intel set in the graphics card resolution adjustment tool 855resolution"

Third, the handling of desktop display problems that are not NVidia and ATI display cards or are not supported by ATI manufacturers.

If you can't solve your display problems through system-config-display, such as screen offset and resolution, we can try it with gtf tool.

1. Which software package does the gtf tool come from

Gtf comes from the software package xorg-x11, which is generally available if you have installed a desktop environment; most systems are installed by default

2. What is gtf

Gtf-calculate VESA GTF mode lines means to calculate the display device VESA driver GTF mode command line tool

What is gtf? Gtf (generalized timing formula), the general program time, defines the time required to generate a picture, including the screen refresh rate, etc.). In addition, gtf is also an industry standard for display devices; the screen size can be adjusted automatically through GTF.

We use the gtf tool to calculate the screen size and resolution of the monitor, and then insert the calculated values into the xorg.conf configuration file to automatically adjust the display size, position and resolution of the screen.
