Don't know about the KVM switch but check your xorg.conf to see if you find 1280 x 1024 there. If not add it in the same manner as other resolutions and see what happens. This is most likely the solution. If it does not help, come back and we'll see if we can figure out something else.

KVM Switches / Monitors / Resolution

Post by nick »

Hi
I had the same trouble with Suse on one box and Etch on the other,
it is not inherently the KVM but the quality of the leads and "switches"
and losses in system and resistance.

Could never get correct resolution with KVM in
either system but always OK with KVM totally disconnected

While I agree with the above posters,
KVM switches are rated at a Maximum Supported
Resolution, why not look up the make and details
of your KVM
