Hi all,

I am using Red Hat 9.0 , my problem is my desktop is not covered fully.

only after 1/2 cm the left margin of desktop begins , so i feel uncomfortable to access the close window buttons when i maximize a window .

My monitor is not automatically detected by Red hat .

Please tell me how to sort out this problem ?

Thanks

On the monitor there are buttons to resize the screen,use them
