Change Ubuntu Screen Resolutions
I am using Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy and GeForce with Nvidia as graphic card chipset. Until yesterday I can't change my screen resolutions, default is 1024 x 768 and its a maximal resolution. I am usually set the screen resolutions to 1280 x 960 when I am in Windows XP. Then one of my friend told me try to use this command in order to increase my screen resolutions.
k4tz@k4tz-desktop:~$ sudo
dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

It's been 2 months I am using Sierra 3G PCMCIA modem in Windows XP. Installation in Windows XP is quite easy, that's why for 2 months I am enjoying using it.

We have to add medibuntu repository in order to have Google earth installed.

Init Script File in Ubuntu
If we have create one execution file, for example in /usr/local/bin/mirror . Can we put this file as init script file and always run while startup and everytime our linux system will check it ??? Off course we can use cron to make it a routine execution file, but I will use other way.

jafar@dns:$ sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/mirror
jafar@dns:$ sudo vi /etc/init.d/mirror
#! /bin/sh
/usr/local/bin/mirror >/dev/null 2>&1 &
