You need to run a program called drakconf. If you are in the KDE desktop graphical interface go to System | Configuration | Configure your computer to run it. If you are in text mode, log in as root by typing su then your password (linux01). Then type drakconf. You can use the tab and enter key to navigate the screens till you get to the monitor setup. Pick the appropiate monitor, resolution, and size.
