Cannot change screen resolution in VDI

I have set up a test VDI environment. Each user is manually assigned to a virtual desktop. Here is the issue. I am unable to change the resolution for the user. It goes to full screen and fills both monitors. But the user would like resolution to be a
little lower. Do I need a RemoteFX 3D adapter to accomplish this?

so it helps to write all detail in the question :-)

Cannot Change Screen Resolutions

I recently upgraded to Tiger and noticed that I can no longer change the screen resolution. There is now only one choice 1152 by 768. I have reset PRAM and installed the latest ATI software with no solution. Also software which used to run in "full screen" now only runs in a much smaller window.
Any ideas?
Thanks - Bill

Hi Everyone,
This seems to be a common problem that is plaguing 800 & 867mhz TiBooks. I am an ex-Mac Genius and have tried to fix this on my machine to no avail. It worked once, but after I used the S-Video port the problem returned. Here's some of the stuff I've tried. I'm not going to explain some of these procedures as they are all well documented troubleshooting procedures. Just search for them here on the Apple Support Website & on MacFixIt.com:
NVRAM & PRAM resets
power manager resets
Permissions Repairs
Disk Utility Repairs
Diskwarrior 3.0X
Cache Deletion using Cocktail (available at Versiontracker.com)
Deleting Kernel Extension's Cache
Deleting Displays preferences
Reinstallation of Displays Bundles from Install DVD (/System/Library/Extensions/AppleNDRV/)
This one is nasty. It seems to be directly related to the Radeon 9000 & the way that the System Software verifies what kind of Display and Video Card it's using. I had also Installed ATI's Graphics Update which they said was Tiger compatible. However, the software doesn't allow any advanced options after this bug has struck. I uninstalled the ATI Software manually before I replaced the System Bundles.
I have sent a bug report into Apple and wanted to post some off this info here in hopes that maybe some of this will help some of you. Like I said I had fixed this briefly, but after using the S-Video port it came back, which is why I think it is a problem with the System's ability to recognize the Video Card & Display.

Cannot change screen resolution on an Ultra 5 using m64config

I have an Ultra 5 with Solaris 2.6 connected to a Xerox XR6-19Dw 19" widescreen monitor with 1440x900 pixels. This workstation was set up a long time ago, so I do not know exactly how it has been set up. The screen resolution is set to 1280x1024x60 and it looks very blurry due to the mismatch between LCD pixels and the resolution setting. First I tried m64config -res 1440x900x76 try. This just turns the screen all white, luckily it reverts to the old setting after 10 seconds. Then just for fun I tried m64config -res 1280x1024x60. This also turned the screen all white. I have heard there is also a way to set the screen resolution using the boot prom, but that this is not necessary because m64config should work. It is very important that I do not mess up this workstation, but the eyestrain is a big problem. Is there a safe way to fix this?

Get a different monitor. Use one that is far less capable and has an old-style 4:3 screen ratio (not a wide screen).
The integrated graphics of the Ultra5/Ultra10 platform has only 4MB of frame buffer RAM and defaults to Sun's screen output of 1152x900 at 66Hz refresh. In fact, very early Ultra 5 systems had only 2MB of frame buffer RAM for the integrated graphics. The hardware is incapable of providing anything like what you are asking for.
If you don't care about color depth, the 1280x1024 resolution you currently see is the highest you're going to get. There is absolutely no chance for any wide-screen settings. If you ever hope for 24bit color, you will have to go down to the 1152x900 setting or more probably down to 1024x768.
You're system is a design from 1997 that first shipped to paying customers in 1998.
I think you are hoping for too much out of that dinosaur.

[SOLVED] Cannot Change Screen Resolution

Today, I reinstalled Arch — I replaced the Windows partition with a new / partition, and the old partition became /home. Now, with the new installation, in X, I cannot get a resolution higher than 1024*768. xrandr lists 1280*960 among others, but if I try to switch to it, the video card stops sending the video signal to the monitor and the only way out is to raise elephants.
Hardware:
Video Card: NVIDIA RIVA TNT2
Monitor: ViewSonic A70f+
I am using the nouveau driver for now. In the old installation, I believe I was using nv.
How do I fix this?

Adding nomodeset fixed it. The resolution is now a surprising 1400*1050:
http://img.ly/system/uploads/000/631/85 … _scrot.png
I didn't know my monitor was capable of 1400*1050. I thought its maximum was 1280*1024.
It also got rid of the framebuffer... heh heh
I also switched back to the nv driver.
[2010-12-19T12:19-0600] Update: That's odd... It went back down to 1280*960. Oh well, I originally wanted that resolution anyway: http://img.ly/system/uploads/000/632/75 … _scrot.png

Unable to Change Screen Resolution in Remote Session - Windows Server 2012 R2

Does anybody know of a way to allow Remote Desktop users to adjust their own screen resolution in a remote session under Windows Server 2012 R2? We are struggling with this and can't seem to find a solution.
When users login to their RDP session and try to adjust their screen resolution this message is displayed in Control Panel:
"The display settings can't be changed from a remote session."
We don't want to use the "make text and other items larger or smaller" scaling feature, as this produces undesirable results with some of our applications. We also don't want to have to support multiple types of RDP clients or RDP shortcut
files.
We have looked at other posts but can't find an answer that applies to Windows Server 2012 R2. The closest thing we could find is KB2726399, but it only applies to Server 2008.
Does anybody have a solution for Server 2012?
Thanks

Hi,
Currently you cannot change the resolution from within the session. This is normal and expected behavior.
Unfortunately this means you need to set the desired resolution before connecting by using custom .rdp files, manually within the Remote Desktop Client, custom web launch page, custom windows launch program, etc.

Problem to change screen resolution in MB Intel DG41 with video on board

Hi, I need some help as soon as possible because this problem it´s make me difficult my job. I have installed the MAC OS Snow Leopard 10.6.2 in a Motherboard Intel DG41 with micro Core2Duo and video on board of this motherboard and don´t let me change screen resolution. I have a display of 22´ inches and the panel to change the screen resolution only mark 1024x768. I think the more likely it is that the system does not recognize me the drivers to this chipset of video. I searched everywhere on the internet but I have not found the solution.
Thanks Fernando

Change Screen Resolution or not Change Screen Resolution?

I mean is it possible to change screen resolution with Java?
I read some topics (not in this forum) that is impossible. I know there is a method to set at full screen a frame with the favourite resolution but does it effectively exist a method to set the screen with a favourite resolution?
For example:
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        frame.setUndecorated(true);
        frame.setIgnoreRepaint(true);
        device.setFullScreenWindow(frame);
        if (displayMode != null && device.isDisplayChangeSupported()) {
            try {
                device.setDisplayMode(displayMode);
            } catch (IllegalArgumentException iae) {
                System.err.println("EX: " + iae);
        ...the device.setDisplayMode(displayMode) always throw me an exception: Invalid Display Mode (or something like that) with all permitted display modes (640by480, 800by600, 1024by768, etc...), with all permitted refresh rates, with all permitted color depths.
Illuminate me please!
Thanx in advance!

Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

Sorry to say reloading WebOS did not help this issue on my TP. contacted Support and was told to send it.Even sorrier to say that my TP is now lost. My tracking number reports it as delievered on Dec 5, but HP has no record of it.When I got back on Chat they are now also telling me that my TP serial number is a EU model, even though my box clearly states HP Touchpad ,US, 1.20,32gb,Wifi.
Not sure what that even has to do with it being lost now..if it is as they say and no warranty on it in US I just want it sent back.

Another feature to allow users to change screen resolution to HD for gaming

I liked k3 Note, smartphone which is filled with lots of professional features. Can you add a control to change screen resolution to HD for games. Lots of people are there which are thinking that other phones' gpu are better and the Mali t760 m2 not so good.

Hi
In case someone else encounters the same problem, here is some more information.
The high refresh rate is quite visible in Device Manager. It would refresh every one or two seconds. The cause seems to be a conflict between a Fingerprint software installed during the Task sequence and the Validity Sensors Drivers.
I made a Scan for hardware change in Device manager and saw that a few devices were appearing as unknown. Right click, update drivers from local cache solved the problem.
I cancelled install of the fingerprint software and did not encounter the problem anymore.

Changing screen resolution

Hi Everyone,
I'm quite sure that it is not possible to change the screen resolution from within a running java program. The problem is that my boss won't believe it until he reads it in the spec. Does anyone out there know where to find a anything about it the specs?
Thanks in advance
jan

Hi! The screen resolution is a function of the underlying OS and cannot be changed from a Java program, unless one resorts to JNI. However, the screen resolution can be retrieved from a Java program. Look at the docs for the getScreenSize() and getScreenResolution() methods in the java.awt.Toolkit packges. Note that these methods are abstract. The actual implementation depends upon the vendor.
Perhaps you can ask your boss to search the Java docs for methods that allow Java code to change the resolution w/o resorting to JNI. We'll all be glad to know! :-)
Hope this helps!
Cheers!

Change screen resolution message when trying to start media manager

I use a UMPC (Samsung Q1UP) that only has a screen resoluion opion of 1024 x 600 as it is a 7" landscape mobile computer. When I start up the blackberry software, and then try to launch Media Manager etc., it gives me an error message to change the screen resolution to at least 1024 x 768 or higher.
As I cannot change the screen resolution to accomodate the software request, has anyone come up with a fix for this issue?
Thanks in advance!

This is the part of technology I hate with a passion. When new products come out, companies have no idea what to do when compatibility issues arise and they leave millions of people in the dark.
Blackberry charges for support if you call them direct (imbecilic policy in my opinion). You have to go through AT&T to get support from Blackberry for free. (I believe the Curve phone has an inactivated price of $699, you would think Blackberry would want to talk directly to their customers for free, but no!)
I spent 20 minutes on the phone with AT&T to explain the issue I was having. After convincing them I know what I am doing, they put me through to Blackberry support tech, where I had to repeat the issue over again.
After spending another 40 minutes with a junior, then senior Blackberry tech, their solution was for me to plug in an external monitor and set it to 1024X768 so the Roxio Media Manager comes up.
This is imbecilic as well, as the whole purpose for this netbook is so that I don't have to have to lug around a monitor with me, otherwise with the netbook and the monitor I am way over 7 lbs.
There was another person in this forum who recommended installing an older Desktop manager software without the media manager product on my PC to allow me to access the files directly. Although this works for a media card, it DOESN'T work for the internal memory in the phone. The internal memory in the phone appears to be locked up tight and only accessible to the media manager, or Bluetooth. I did manage to get the files off via Bluetooth ONE FILE AT A TIME! took me nearly 2 hours.
My suggestions to Blackberry:
1) Scrap Roxio Media Manager. Most people who use this phone know what they are doing and understand how to drag and drop files from a disk drive to a computer. Roxio Media Manager should not be necessary to get files off of a phone.
2) Open up the internal memory inside the phone so it comes up as a disk drive on the computer.
3) or - Do something else to make this work with Netbooks!

Change Screen resolution in solaris

Hi
How can I change the screen resolution in either cde/java desktop? I remember setting the resolution to 800*600. But after installation the screen resolution has become 640*480 and everything is big.

How`s about a little more info ?
Are you running a SPARC machine or a PC ?
If you have installed on a PC, simply bring up a terminal window and type : kdmconfig
A little more involved if installed on a SPARC machine.
Good luck .................JRH.

Auto Changing Screen Resolution

Can anyone tell me if it possible to get Director to change
the screen resolution setting of a PC or Mac when playing a
Projector. At the moment my projector is set to run at 1024 x 768
but our boardroom PC displays at 1920 x 1200. I don't want users to
have to change the screen settings themselves and would like
Director to automatically change it when playing and then change it
back when exiting. Is this possible?

There are quite a few xtras that can do that. BuddyAPI for
example is
one of them. It is free to use up to 2 commands, so you could
do this
for free.
