	I think hat you want to do is edit our XF86Config File (find it in
/etc/X11). You need to find the 'screen' section. In this section there
is a subsection for each colour depth (eg, 8, 15 and 16 bpp etc.). For
each of the colour depths thee will be a line that says 'virtual 1024
768'. The numbers may be different in your case, but they are what you
want to change. Set the Virtual size to the largest size listed on the
Modes line and that should give you what you want. You can also change
modes by pressing 'Ctrl & Alt & +or-' , but use the + and - keys on the
number pad.
Hope this helps.
