Hello,
I need to set Centos display to resolution 2560x1400, but I don't have such in diplay settings:
How to set display to 2560x1400 ?
Custom display resolution
Re: Custom display resolution
I believe the list of resolutions is obtained from your display by using DDC. If you look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log and search for 'EDID' then shortly after that, you should see a line like
[ 13.805] (II) modeset(0): Printing probed modes for output DP-1
and under that, it will print all the modes that your monitor is reporting that it supports.
[ 13.805] (II) modeset(0): Printing probed modes for output DP-1
and under that, it will print all the modes that your monitor is reporting that it supports.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

Re: Custom display resolution
Since I run Centos in vmware machine, display settings comes from vmware. I run vmware tools manually and it not pass correct values at startup time. That is why I don't have right values in display settings. Is my understanding correct?

Re: Custom display resolution
That sounds like a question for VMWare. In VirtualBox you can use VBoxManage addextradata to add new display resolutions to a VM. No idea if something similar can be done in VMWare.
