Hiya all...
I have installed Mandrake 10.0 with the GNOME GUI. I love the way it's set out and the way it works - this coming from a former dedicated but loathing WindozeXP user - but I really dislike the *large* icons that are the default. I have looked throught the GNOME config settings, but to no avail. Is there any option for me to get smaller icons on the desktop?
Thanks in advance.
Lee

try increasing screen resolution..

I have a generic 17" monitor and can't increase my resolution or my refresh rate. It's stuck at 1024x768 at 82Hz, however when I reboot into windoze my resolution is 1152x864 at 75Hz. :roll:
Ricky, do you know anything about setting up USB in mandrake 10.0? if so, where should I post my question?

To be safe, do as wat Ricky say on the config file, i suggest u to use Generic CRT monitor display on 56 Hz at 1024X768 for safety purpose and Generic LCD display with the same settings if u use LCD
