So once I get the desktop lined up, I will be looking > for a solution resolution during booting. I just did a fresh Stretch install with LXDE to confirm nothing's changed lately. Recent Intel video driver versions are picking up video= from cmdline to make the Xorg default. I typically include video=1440x900@60 on kernel cmdline with a 1680x1050 display. With Intel video driver, this makes X start in 1440x900 unless overridden by xorg.conf* or xrandr. With this fresh installation, I put 'xrandr --dpi 108 --output VGA1 --mode 1680x1050' in a startup script in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ to get LXDE to start in the display's native 1680x1050 mode and using an artificial DPI to enlarge Xorg objects (including text) 26.5% (1.125^2; 108/96 ^2) over default. Whether ATI or Nouveau drivers are picking up video= from kernel cmdline I've not checked lately. Nevertheless, if you want to run some mode other than your display's native mode without needing to fiddle with any DE's settings, it remains possible using xrandr as I did (or as Charlie suggested via ~/), or setting PreferredMode in /etc/X11/xorg.conf*. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
