Using a Screen Resolution of 1024 x 768 in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 Virtual Machine (1001511)

Details

When using VMware ESX, after installing Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5 on a virtual machine, even if a screen resolution of 1024 x 768 is selected, the virtual machine boots with a resolution of 640 x 480. This occurs even when VMware Tools is installed and the guest operating system is rebooted.

Solution

This is a known issue. Workaround the issue by manually selecting a screen resolution of 1024 x 768, either by using RedHat's configuration tool or by directly editingxorg.conf.

 

To use the RedHat configuration tool, executesystem-config-displayand choose 1024 x 768 from the drop down menu in the user interface.

 

To edit the Xorg configuration file manually:

1. Open/etc/X11/xorg.conf and make sure that the 1024 x 768 mode is included in the Screen section as shown below:
   ------------------------------------------
   Section "Screen"
   
   Identifier "Screen0"
   
   Device "Videocard0"
   
   Monitor "Monitor0"
   
   DefaultDepth 24
   
   SubSection "Display"
   
   Viewport 0 0
   
   Depth 24
   
   Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
   
   EndSubSection
   
   ------------------------------------------
    
2. For the changes to take effect, press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to stop and restart the X server.  

Note: If the issue still persists, try changing the resolution using the resolution tool. To do this, Click System > Preferences > Screen Resolution, select the preferred resolution size, and set it as a default for the system.
