I for one would like an 800x600 xwindow system setup, however, like whoever
the originator of this post is..I am unable to do so.  I have a 15" monitor,
640x480 is too large, 1024x768 is too large.  800x600 is optimal for me, if
I could switch I would but hardware prevents me from it.  Perhaps I missed
something but the lack of X support for this resolution seems odd to me.
