When I start the VGA server the windows are 'too big' to fit on the screen. I've tried the SVGA server but the windows are even bigger again. The doco indicates that resolution can be changed with Ctrl/Alt/KeyPad +/- but this seems to have no effect. a) how does one adjust screen resolution b) is their any software that can tell me what this VGA card is pretending to be ?
