Like the title says I am running Fedora Core 5 on a Playstation 3. The monitor is a 50" Sony Grand Wega. Model no: KDS-50A2000. The problem I am having is that it is displaying at 576 x 384. Far too large. Below I have listed xorg.conf, kboot.conf and what xrandr shows me. Any help would be appreciated.

xrandr:

# To disable the XKEYBOARD extension, uncomment XkbDisable.

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the

# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"

# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# or:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"
# Or if you just want both to be control, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"

I don't know what to suggest, as there is a risk of monitor damage when changing settings.
As I can't see any display resolution settings in the file caution may be the best approach, plus looking on the Fedora/ps3linux forums.

In the meantime here are the entries from my XF86Config4 file to ponder over.
