display settings

[Eric Bourland <ebourland prb org>]

Hello.

I built a computer and installed RedHat 6.2 last night, choosing the GNOME
graphical user interface. Assembly and installation seemed to proceed
without problems. (I did have to change memory DIMMs to defeat a Signal 11
problem.)

I cannot figure out how to adjust my display settings: color bit depth,
screen resolution, and screen refresh rate. I cannot find appropriate
controls in the GNOME interface. I have read that there's an application
called xconfigurator that will adjust display settings.

How do I use xconfigurator? Or should I use something else?

Thanks for any help.

Kind regards,

Eric
