I lost my resolution

[SIFE]

My screen resolution was fine, once I added gdm to rc.conf then I rebooted my system, and the resolution changed and I can't get back. I tried to remove gdm from rc.conf and start gdm manually but no hope.

Would you check if your /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf has the correct resolution?

 

[adamk]

What is the output of xrandr?. What resolution are you trying to get?

I didn't touch any thing, I just added gdm to rc.conf, after reboot. The icons become bigger.

I don't wont to get any resolution, I just want to get back the old size of icons.

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 3840 x 1920
VGA_1 connected 1024x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm
   1024x768       60.0* 
   800x600        60.3  
   640x480        59.9  
DVI-D_1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

OK, above you said the resolution changed and you can't get it back. Now you're saying you don't care what the resolution is, you just want to change the size "of icon". So which is it? And if it's the size of some icon you want to change, what icon are you talking about?

my rc.conf has

gnome_enable="YES"

What's the resolution of your monitor? You can set it in your xorg.conf if auto detection fails.

Don't use radeonhd, use plain radeon from x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati.

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 3840 x 1920

The monitor says it can do more. 1024x768 could be the desktop environment or gdm "helping". Log in and change it in Gnome (maybe), or set a default resolution in xorg.conf.

@adamk
After I added gdm to rc.conf, my icon's size changed without changing default resolution.

Don't use radeonhd, use plain radeon from x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati.

I always use radeonhd, and I had never problem with it before until now, changing the driver in xorg.conf give me higher resolution but the GUI is kinda slow when I move window's, is there any thing to fix this.
