You'll need to edit xorg.conf, though that was a weird resolution. Sure you are not after 1280x800? And it seems like the xorg.conf has changed in Elyssa, can you post yours? Use this in a terminal:

Code: Select all

cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
and post the output here.
(and to the admins, can you implement tab completion in the forums? I go for it the second I start typing /e :) )
