Hello
I'm new to Bunsenlabs distro, also not so skilled in Linux. I get S450 as simple terminal for COM (serial port access).
Bunsenlabs distro it's what I'm looking for - but I need some help with my hardware.
When system is starting screenresolution is fine, but when it went to graphic terminal I get 800x600 (I guess becasue at the moment I lost access to my box)
I found topic https://forums.bunsenlabs.org/viewtopic.php?id=3016
and I tryed Use arandr to configure. Unfortunetelly I choosed 1600x1xxx (defult resolution of my monitor) and my sceen made black. I tryed to restart but nothing changed after text mode I get black screen.
How to revert to defualt config?
What information I should provie that You can help me wih my problem?

Regards

Did you save the arandr screen config? If so, then open a TTY (Ctrl-F1) and edit it or delete it (probably in ~/.screenlayout)

As far as I remember I choose resolution I and clicked apply - nothing more
I will try it tommorow.
Do You have any ideas how to get at least 1024x768 resolution?

I described how to access the settings by opening a TTY. You can create a new screenlayout script with:
mkdir -p ~/.screenlayout
nano ~/.screenlayout/layout.sh
Add this to the layout script (assuming you are using VGA-0):
#!/bin/sh
xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1024x768 --pos 0x0 --rotate normal
Use Ctrl-o to save, Ctrl-x to exit the editor
Then restart.

Hello
Today I'm able to logon but still have 640*480 screen resolution and I can't open TTY using Ctrl+F1
I started to play with:
Preferences>Display>ARandr Screen Layout Editor > Output I see:
LVDS - active - resolution 640*480
DVI-0 - active - couple resolution to choose, and 640*480 enabled
When I change it to i.e. 1280*1024 and commit it, my screen went black.
How to fix my problem?
Regards

Sorry, nobody spotted that I should have said "Control-Alt-F1" :8
256MB of memory is the minimum requirement, but perhaps it isn't enough for your graphical setup? Maybe it can't run 2 monitors.

I tryed Ctrl-Alt-F1 ... something strange is going on
When I pressed it black screen appear and I dont know how to go back to graphic console.
Is looks like the same as when I try change resolution using arandr.
This computer has 1GB DDR2 so this isn't such problem. Also has only DVI as a monitor output. Any other ideas?
Is it possible to use from the link above:
lts.conf
#thinClients Futro S450 list of all macs
[aa:19:99:6a:xx:xx]
LIKE=FUTRO
#thinClients Futro configuration in general
[FUTRO]
CONFIGURE_X=False
XRANDR_MODE_0
X_CONF=/etc/X11/xorgFutro.conf

C-A-F1(to F6) should give you a TTY commandline
Return to the graphical screen with C-A-F7

If I switch to TTY using C-A-F1 - I _can't_ got back. I need to power off and start over.
Do You have any ideas what I can try?

Hello
I did dist-upgrade - but without any changes in my problem.
I discovered that I can set 800*600 resolution, small change but usefull.
SO I try to do what You tell me, I created and edited layout.sh
#!/bin/sh
xrandr --output LVDS --off --output DVI-0 --mode 800x600 --pos 0x0 --rotate normal
Unfortunetelly after restart I had LVDS active and 640*480
I spent some time on googling and I found solution to disable the LVDS display at boot.https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2164669
but where I sould edit
append ro initrd=initrd.img-3.8.0-26-generic init=/sbin/init-ltsp quiet splash plymouth:force-splash vt.handoff=7 root=/dev/nbd0 video=LVDS-1:d
Where (how to locate this file) I should change settings?

Don't do that!!! It is a kernel command when you boot an Ubuntu system.
In this Debian post it suggests you add
"video=LVDS-1:d" to the linux boot line in grub.cfg (just before "root=…")
Instead, I suggest you try it first before making it permanent. When the grub screen appears during the boot process, press "e" to edit the boot parameters, and add "video=LVDS-1:d" to the end of the line which starts with "linux".
If it works then make it permanent by editing (as root) "/boot/grub/grub.cfg", and add the kernel parameter to the "menuentry 'BunsenLabs....'" section

Well done
See my post above for a possible way to disable LVDS.
You can force layout.sh by adding it to your Openbox autostart (make sure it is executable)
~/.screenlayout/layout.sh &

Hello
My issue was definitelly connected with two outputs. I don't know what is LVDS but when it's diabled everything working as expected.
I did changes in grub.cfg only.
