kde resolution

Hi all,

I've installed debian3.1/kde on my laptop.
How do i change the resolution of kde. I can only select 640x480 or 800x600.

Where do I configure this

Did you select more resolutions at the X server configuration?

Does the driver you use support them?

RE: kde resolution

Here is a snippit of my Xfree86-4.conf file in /etc/X11/. Notice that the DefaultDepth is 24 and in the Subsection "Display" Depth 24, it starts with "1280x1024", which is the default that the computer will try first:
