Having some problems with monitor detection, and selecting one by hand
in system-config-display doesn't seem to affect the xorg.conf that's
written out.
So am currently stuck in 800x600, which is less than ideal.
Am investigating...
Manually hacking up the modelines in the Xorg.conf gave me a better
resolution, and it's usable - but now I have a problem where if I
Ctrl-Alt-F1 through F6 to the virtual terminals, they switch fine, but
on switching back to Ctrl-Alt-F7 I get into a hosed text mode that I
can't get out of.
Is anyone else testing this package? Is it just my system that's hosed?
