I appreciate your efforts I really do, but like I said any cheats always end up reverting to 640x480. (As did this one)

1000 downloads a day is very impressive, but think about it, I'm one of those. How many end up deciding, (like me) that Linux is just not for them? What are the stats on folk sticking with it? Last time I checked Linux' total web usage was somewhere around 3%.

A shame really, as I feel that there is a market right now for a user friendly alternative OS (Emphasis on user friendly). But that isn't one where screen res is restricted by default, or that needs cheats to enable it to be useful, and clearly it's not just an isolated problem.

I don't mean for this to come across as an anti-Linux rant, I guess I got lured in by sites (Linux Newbie Aministrator guide) telling me that all the rumors about linux were untrue, and I wanted to see for myself. Well I did.

Thanks for your time again.
