Description of problem: 915resolution-0.5.3: i can not set screen resolution 1280X800 to be the default resolution after startup, utilizing the GNOME System Preferences for setting startup programms of the user How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. I open Desktob System - Preferences - More Preferences - Sessions - 'Startup Programs' tab 2. I add the following command using the 'Add' button - 915resolution 38 1280 800 3. i restart the PC and log with the same user of previous session, but resolution is not set Actual results: after restarting PC, the resolution is not set to 1280X800, but i have to restart the x window by Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to get the resolution set! Expected results: it is expected that screen resolution 1280X800 is set automatically when the machine is started later - with the same user account Additional info:
915resolution requires root privs to run, and as a result this is expected. It is recommended to run 915resolution at system startup; this usage is unsupported. Running 915resolution _after_ XWindows has started will not modify the BIOS before the driver reads it.
