Thx.. Similar question: my portable is 1280x768 pixels, but KDE comes up in 1024x768, making 'wide' icons and text :-( I tried to add in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf in Section "Screen" for all entries in Subsection "Display" (different Depths), a line Modes "1280x784" ... but this does not help.. In KDE menu / Settings / peripherals / Display / the only choice for Screen Size remains 1024x768 without alternatives (as before) ... How to remedy?
