X Configuration Script

Edit the configuration script for X to change the resolution.

#ffbconfig -prconf
(This tells you what your options are and what your current resolution is)
#ffbconfig -dev /dev/fbs/ffb0 -res 1024x768x60 try

The path to your video card will be shown with the ffbconfig -prconf command so make the appropriate substitutions. The same applies for the resolution setting options.
