Re: Need help configuring Sarge after hardware upgrade

["Judd Maltin" <debian-testing-judd@craftanalogy.com>]

Your desktop isn't the same size as the X display.  Try replacing the
"Screen" section of your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file with the stuff below
and restarting X.
Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Card0"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth 16
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     16
                Modes   "1280x1024" "1024x768" "880x600"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     24
        EndSubSection
EndSection
