Colonel Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 what kind of Dell do you have? You can change the resolution at the Darwin boot loader. For example, if you wanted 1280x1024 you would type "Graphics Mode"="1280x1024x32" with the quotes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jadedknight Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 Thnx! So much to everyone who has helped as well as other posts throughout the board I have read. Just the tearing to fix last. Is this possible? And one more question. What is a good bittorrent client for Mac? I tried Auzereus but it would not work after I installed it and I have Java installed.
