Sorry, I thought I had replied to this... The output to the first two commands is below. I didn't know about xrandr and using it to resize. When I tried the command above involving --mode, I got a usage message but that's it. I'll be losing access to this machine in a few days (new job), so I won't be able to help with tings for much longer. -- Itai Seggev Visiting Assistant Professor Office: Lewis 121A Department of Physics and Astronomy Phone: +1-662-915-3887 University of Mississippi Fax: +1-662-915-5045 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
