Hi, first off i love mint kde, i have a feeling its going to permanently replace kubuntu on my machine and im definitely going to recommend it to my friends. one thing that im slightly stumped on is how to change the resolution in kde, in kubuntu i always did it via xorg.conf (i can never remember the easy way )but when i looked at mints xorg.conf the resolutions are nowhere to be found and cant find the gui way of doing it either. its a slight PITA since im running it in a vm and i cant get it to fit on the screen correctly (gonna have to shrink it down to 1024x768 or 800x600), also is there a way to use the original kde k menu, the default menu (i heard someone call it tasty menu?) is way too big for my liking, even the kmenu in kde4 is too big for me.

edit: i just saw that removing tastymenu was as easy as apt-get remove tastymenu
