    edit you xorg.conf file. But do backup your original file before you do any changes to the file since if you make some mistakes in editing ,X may not start.

    Make sure you monitor supports 1024x768. (in case you monitor is somewhat old one.)

    You can get all the linux CDs you want from the Linux center at Nugegoda. THey'll help ypu install and configure it as well.
    I beleive they have some sort of workshops as well to get training on Linux (Not too sure on that though)
