Too High Screen Resolution . Please suggest a fix.

[Gaggi Singh]

Does anyone know how to change screen resolution in Remix OS for PC.

There is no option in Display Settings either.

And Hotkeys [shift+Alt+Ctrl+F5/F6/F7/F8] aren't working either.

It'll be almost unusable at 1920x1080 (the current resolution)

I've a 21-inch monitor display

Here's a screenshot

Just out of curiosity: in my opinion seems to be good (I have the same at 15-inch laptop). Which resolution will be OK? 2K?

Have a similar problem except the resolution is too sharp on my qhd+ laptop. The text and buttons are tiny. Any way to change scaling or resolution?

Thank you both for the infos.
i added a commadn when booting up at Resident mode.

DPI=232

I used this DPI calculator to calculate it for 1024x768 resosution . 22-inches Monitor.

https://www.sven.de/dpi/

Horizontal resolution: 1024 pixels
Vertical resolution: 768 pixels
Diagonal: 22 inches

It gave me DPI = 232 and that's what I'm using ! :D

Just to share my experience making my Lenovo ThinkPad T61 to work:

The issue was not showing the graphic mode, just blank screen after text mode messages.

I was able to see the graphic mode on the external 4x3 17" monitor.

From Windows, I found out that the native screen resolution is 1440 x 900

After pressing escape at the grub4dos boot countdown screen I was able to edit options and add "vga=ask" 

The option for 1440x900x32 was (hexadecimal) "365" and converted to decimal is 869.

The interesting part is if I've used vga=869, or vga=0x365, I got nothing after running the splash screen.

To reboot properly you can use "alt-F1" and there type "reboot"

so my permanent solution was:

Boot Windows, navigate to c:\RemixOS

edit meny.lst to look like this (I've used Notepad++):

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

default 0

timeout 10

title Resident mode - All your data and apps are saved

find --set-root /RemixOS/kernel

kernel /RemixOS/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive quiet SRC=RemixOS/ DATA= CREATE_DATA_IMG=1 vga=ask

initrd /RemixOS/initrd.img

boot

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I hope this will help someone.
