Switching resolution with debian

Hi,

working on a MacBook Pro I wanted to install debian.
Afer the Install I wanted to switch from 1440x900 to 1024x768
after I did that the VM blinked like an out of sync Display.....
The same if I only allow 1024x768 and want to switch to 800x600 BOOM all the time, same with ubuntu.

Gnome shows refresh rate 61

the working 1440x900 REfreshrates from xorg.conf are:
H:28-72
V:43-60

and with 1024x768:
H:28-51
V:43-60


can anyone change the resolution on the run ?


thanks in advance
 
To test this, you can start the Ubuntu InstallCD and choose
System > Preferences > Screenresolution.

When i switch to any other resolution than the first ,
The VM is unwatchable
 
There are some Xorg.config files on this board (do a Search) - I know this has been discussed a lot before. Since you are using debian, Ubuntu settings should also work fine for you.
