	I want to increase the screen resolution in RHEL 5
	 
	However Sytems Preferences...Screen Resolution only allows
allows a maximum of 800x600
	 
	Is this an issue with the video driver?
	 
	 


I'm not exactly sure what enforces this but during the installation you
get to pick the maximum screen resolution you are interested in. After
the system has been installed you need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to
enable higher resolutions.

I myself would love to know the right utility to use after the
installation for this task.
