Default BackTrack 4 screen resolution - 07-13-2009, 08:11 PM

This maybe a simple fix, but I haven't found it yet. I've made my persistent BT4 Pre-Final USB drive and all. But I have yet found a why to get the screen resolution higher than 800x600 32bit. Anyone have any suggestions?

well found the solution and thought I would share it in case anyone else is having the same issue. Open a konsole and type the following

xrandr 1024*600

that's it.
