This isn't TCC, but the XFCE used for a linuxcnc install on those machines. Its debian wheezy, 7.8, with a real time patched kernel. TCC has no such choices here on this machine, but since it works reasonably well on this dell 16x9 23"er, I haven't looked that hard either. I have looked at xrandr, but see no controls that would effect that. > TCC does work > here on a P4D/G33 installation on a 16:10 display to switch between > 1600x1200 and 1440x900.

There is a 13nnx800 mode but the images are bigger than the screen and circles are still smunched vertically. 17" AOC monitor on the machine doing the squashing. Thanks Felix.
