The screen res u=7F is at least 1200x1600. there is no xorg.conf, and my notes on how to create this file are missing. my scren is skewedd to the left; there's about=20 18mm of blaaaack on my right hand side. i'll try to re-install gnomee and make sy=7Fure that other window mangers are there. one prticularly annoyying thins is how to set backspaccce =3D=3D ^Hin KDE...... NO Complaints; tthis move ffrom 6.9 to 7.2 had to be done and theee ports term has done a great djob. once i've got an /etc/X11/xorg, this should be on the road.
