Re: Problem with Toshiba 5105 laptop, kernel-2.6.4 and nvidia driver 1.0-5336.

Dmitry, That definitely made a difference in the size of the fonts. They now 
match the screen resolution.

But I still have the 1/4 inch gap. And the guys from Nvidia haven't answered 
me back yet, but I'm still going through my mail. I if I find a solution I 
post it. 
If you find anything else out please let me know.

Thanks for the help! :-)
