I have a KVM LEB (512 RAM) running Ubuntu 12.10. I added lxde for periodic VNC use mainly just to surf the web.
I realize adding a GUI to a server makes it less secure.
When I connect to the VNC (using X11VNC as the server), the max resolution I can choose is 1024x768. I did a bunch of googling and there is a lot out there about using xrandr to add a new resolution. But, when I do a "xrandr -q", it states the max resolution is 1024x768. I assume this means I can't add resolutions greater than that, even with xrandr. Is that correct?
If so, is this a limitation of my VPS provider? KVM? Would an OpenVZ container work better?
Am I way off?
